I'm teaching myself python. I've been using a Linux command line and when I make a file and run it python never gives me a return value. When I use the interpreter and just type it in I get the return.

The test program is:

def test(x,y):
return 1 #return is indented#it doesn't show when posted.
test(1,2)

When done in the command line I get 1 and the return value but when I make a file test.py I get nothing. When I make the file in vi and and run it from the command line: python test.py. when I substitute print for return it works.
