I recommend following Mr Rathi's advice. Pycharm will get you accustomed to an IDE and you will probably find yourself shifting to VScode within a few weeks. I am not an expert in machine-learning but if you find yourself using genetic algorithms and/or cellular automata you're best with at least 8Gb RAM and VSCode.
PythonAnywhere and Try It Online are also good sandboxes for, well, trying stuff out! In Python and many other coding langs.
