Save the file with .py as extension. So if you name the file helloworld then the file name should be helloworld.py
Now from the terminal, invoke that file using
and press enter.
Now from the terminal, invoke that file using

What's the error?
Because the programs are wrong. For understanding those errors you need to learn Python.

Follow these two steps:
1. Buy the book - Head first python
2. Read the book
You will be a excellent programmer in python when you finish the book - believe me
will buy soon
About my earlier post, i got around to that part where i can generate random names. But even for the same input string it generates a different name.
eg input :Mohan output : cool guy
eg: input: Mohan output: creepy man
any idea how to get the same output for the same input.
