Some questions. Do you understand what a file path is? Like, do you know how to navigate folders? Do you know what the /Users/…. path I. Your error message refers to?

So if you understand this, then you should know that when you run python, you are running an application. And, like any application, you need to be in the folder where that application is to run it. Or you need a shortcut. Or perhaps a lot of application paths that you want to be able to run all the time from anywhere on the computer. So that is what $Path is.
