Trying to get to grips with PyCharm's Python console. 

Am looking for a way I can run a `--version` command similar to the one detailed on this page: <https://docs.python.org/2/using/cmdline.html#generic-options>

I tried in the Python Console at the bottom of PyCharm but it throws me a `NameError: name 'version' is not defined` so I'm guessing it's not the right place to try these kind of commands. I also tried in the Terminal window but it didn't work there either. 

Is there another place I can run these commands?

P.s. I now realise the console actually shows me the version number at the top. But actually I want to know how to be able to run these types of commands in general.
