IDLE (short for Integrated Development and Learning Environment) [2] [3] is an integrated development environment for Python, which has been bundled with the default implementation of the language since 1.5.2b1. [4] [5] It is packaged as an optional part of the Python packaging with many Linux distributions.
Idle speed, sometimes simply called "idle", is the rotational speed an engine runs at when the engine is idling, that is when the engine is uncoupled from the drivetrain and the throttle pedal is not depressed. In combustion engines, idle speed is generally measured in revolutions per minute (rpm) of the crankshaft.

In physics, an idle machine exerts no transfer of energy. When a vehicle is not in motion, an idling engine does no useful thermodynamic work.

St. Bernard of Clairvaux writes, "An idle word is one spoken without reasonable cause. Such therefore is not one which is spoken pleasantly, to console the afflicted ...
The road wheels are a series of non-powered wheels between the drive sprocket and idler wheel that serve to support the weight of the vehicle (and thus aren't considered "idle", even though they are unpowered). In higher speed applications, such as tanks and other AFV's, these road wheels are typically given some sort of suspension system to ...
