Hi everyone, This is my first email to group - I'm just starting to pick up Python and I'm going through the exercises in Zed Shaw's "Learn Python the Hard Way" ebook. Anyhow, I can't seem to be executing any files in terminal for some reason, in this case the file ex1.py:
C:\Users\Carter Danforth\python ex1.py python: can't open file 'ex1.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory ex1.py is located in "pythonpractice" on my desktop and I've updated the modules, here's the output from sys.path: ['', 'C:\\Windows\\system32\\python27.zip', 'C:\\Users\\Carter Danforth\\Desktop\\pythonpractice', 'C:\\Python27\\DLLs', 'C:\\Python27\\lib', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\plat-win', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\Python27', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages'] And the environmental variable is set to have python on my path: C:\Users\Carter Danforth>python Python 2.7 (r27:82525, Jul 4 2010, 07:43:08) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win 32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> I'm not sure why I keep getting this error message and why I'm not able to execute any .py files. Any help would be great appreciated. Carter
