New to Linux - Installing and Using a Text Editor for Using Python and PyTorch

I'm new to using Linux (Ubuntu 16.04) and I've installed Vim to use as a text editor, in order to use python and pytorch.
However, I haven't been able to open anything resembling a text editor. I've opened Vim in the terminal but not in an way in which I can save or edit files. I'm familiar with Komodo for Windows 10 so I feel I would know it if I see it.
I haven't been able to find any online guide or instructions on how to actually go about using Vim, but I'm certainly open to using other editors.
In particular I need to make use of .ipynb and .py files.
Any advice on how to begin would be amazing, or being pointed to any available resources or guides!
Thanks in advance!

komodo is available for Linux 64 bits; download it, unpack it, don't forget to add permission at executable main file withchmod +x komodo.shand run it with./komodo.shto install it (komodo.shis the name of the executable main file)

Atom is good as general GUI editor for any programming language. Vim has steep learning curve, but once you get the basic down, it flows. If you insist on command line one, usenano- it's simple enough

gedit is the native text editor and it has tools dedicated to python, like python console
Or if you want a python specific editor try "anaconda". It is in the ubuntu software center :)

A very simple to use editor is gedit
If you want to use an IDE for python, you can use
pycharm.A link which describes How to install pycharm
Note: If you'd like to use it - I'd suggest using theumakeinstall methodIf you need to use
.ipynb(ipython notebook) - you might focus on The Jupyter Notebookjupyter install
Installing Jupyter using Anaconda
We strongly recommend installing Python and Jupyter using the Anaconda Distribution, which includes Python, the Jupyter Notebook, and other commonly used packages for scientific computing and data science.
See this Q&A regarding how to install Anaconda
After you installed Anaconda, run the following command from the command line:
jupyter notebook
Note: vi isn't editor for beginners (some references):
- (Stack Overflow: Helping One Million Developers Exit Vim)
- A (fake) book focus on Exiting Vim
