Hi,
I am just beginning to learn Python and I ran into a problem related to configuring path. Here is a quick background and other details:
- I have 3.6.2 running on windows
- I tried to extend the path using a simple mypath.pth txt file(Contains: C:\Users\Arjun)
- I tried saving it in the top level Python install directory(C:\...\python36-32\mypath.py)
- I also tried saving it in site-packages(C:\...\python36-32\Lib\site-packages)
- In both the cases when I try to review whether it worked(IDLE and command line) using sys.path, it does not show the contents of mypath.py(C:\Users\Arjun) in the output
- I can see current directory(''), standard modules, PYTHONPATH I configured and site-packages at last, but not the .pth file
Please help me with the issue as I am not sure where I am going wrong. I am beginner and would appreciate all the help I can get.
