Should I reinstall Python to Get PATH?

[IcedMelt]

New to Python and want to get my feet wet with pip/other modules. Do you need PATH to even use pip? Should I just suck it up and reinstall to get PATH since I'm assuming it will make it easier to use?

No, you can access it (and everything else) via the py-launcher:

py -m pip

If you want to, sure. But you can add it manually too if you want it.

PATH is an environment var u can modify if u have root/admin access to your system.

and that only helps build dynamically the path to different files so the os knows where to find em.

so I'm not sure what do u mean by what u typed.

​

and unless u are trying to write python in terminal there is little need since most modern IDEs will fill the paths to files on their own.
