1There's also a QuickRun plugin to quickly run selected text or a file with some command: github.com/thinca/vim-quickrun/blob/master/doc/quickrun.txtmuru– muru2016-02-12 20:33:55 +00:00Commented Feb 12, 2016 at 20:33

Select the block of text by pressing V and moving around:
Now use :w !python3 (or python, as the case may be):
This calls python3 and passes the selected text to the standard input. So, if your code makes use of stdin, this won't work well. Naturally, this won't get you far. For running entire files, you can use :!python3 % or :!python %.

You can do it this way
Go into visual mode in vim press: V
Select the text you want to execute
Type :w test.py ( creating a python script in the folder you're in)
Type :!python test.py
And press enter to return to vim
