If I open the Pycharm IDE, go to "tools" and select "Python Console", and copy and paste

a=1
b=1
c=1

into the console, how do I execute this? If my cursor is at the end of the script (i.e., placed after c=1), I can just hit enter and it works. But the script will not execute if the cursor is placed on one of the first two lines. Hitting Enter only adds a new line between a=1 and b=1. Shift+Enter doesn't work either. Does anyone know how to execute the code without worrying if the cursor is at the very end of the script?

To run source code from the editor in console:

  1. Open file in the editor, and select a fragment of code to be executed.

  1. On the context menu of the selection, choose Execute selection in console, or press Ctrl+Alt+E:

Be careful! on the Shift-Alt-E picture but in reality Ctrl+Alt+E
both work for me. But sometimes I get a weird behaviour where an unwanted "recent locations" window appears (see: intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/…). Does that ever happen to you?
somehow the window stopped showing up once I did right click and ran the code using the menu...though, not sure if that's a permanent solution...
Possible, different OS has system hotkeys, which differ in Linux and MacOS. Perhaps, this is such a case.

Thank you! Is there a way to execute all lines simultaneously in a similar way?
Just select lines you want to execute and press Alt + Shift + E
