Thanks for reminding me.


Assuming Windows NT/2000/XP you go to My Computer and right click
Select Properties and go to the Advanced tab
 
Click Environment Variables button
 
Under System Variables click New
In Varable Name type PYTHONPATH
in upper case
 
In variable value type your folder name
 
c:\math\factoring


I saw the PYTHONPATH name being added to the variable list.

how might I verify, after the fact, that the name is correct?
 
****************

I did all that.

Why did I get this diagnostic?

>>> import factor30.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#270>", line 1, in -toplevel-
    import factor30.py
ImportError: No module named factor30.py
