I want to find out my Python installation path on Windows. For example:
How do I have to configure so that I don’t have to type python script.py but simply script.py in CMD on Windows?
The below code will not join, when debugged the command does not store the whole path but just the last entry.
Is there a way to modify the PATH environment variable in a platform independent way using python?
I’m trying to make a script to list all directory, subdirectory, and files in a given directory.
I tried this:
In my terminal, I type $ which python3, outputting

In a conda environment (base here) I’m surprised by the order of directories in the python path:
Edit: based on a Ulf Rompe’s comment, it is important you use “1” instead of “0”, otherwise you will break sys.path.
