Python "Automate the Boring Stuff" wants me to change Windows environment variables?
#2
Modifying the environment variables is not necessary, it's only done for convenience.
I'm assuming the book wants you to modify the path variable. If so, simply use the full path whenever you need to run a program (such as python or pip)
