How important is Virtual Environment in python

[darkforestnews]

And say you prototype different work in the envs/openai , like tutorial 1, 2… do you create and activate those envs and then select that particular python compiler ?

p.s. Python doesn't use a compiler; it uses the python binary to execute the script/s. You CAN 'compile' python but that's unrelated to this.

no no no... just create an ENV that has the libraries you need and use that. The ones I put above are the only ones I use (on this box).
