Please tell a bit more about your work environment (editors, IDEs, computer OS, etc).
The basic answer to your question is to edit the code in a file of its own, and
to run it is a separate action, from that file.
As an example, my coding environment contains an editor window and a shell
(command line) window. (Plus doco in a web browser, etc, as needed.)
So open a file with a useful name (start with "program1.py", but pick something
more apt depending on the task) and open an editor on that file.
When ready to test, save the file (probably a single key command in most
editors, or the ever popular "File->Save" menu option).
Then in another window, run it:
python program1.py
So you don't write code, test and _then_ save. You write code and save. Then
test from the saved file.
