Hi,

I am new to Python, and I am trying to use a Python Standard Library, namely ‘unicodedata’, however it appears to be missing (others are also missing) from the built-in libraries that come with Python 3.5 for Mac. 

I have searched the following directory, but have not found the library:

	/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5

I have tried reinstalling Python 3.5 and also tried Python 3.4.3, and neither install the ‘unicodedata’ library. Is there anyway to install it manually?

The library is present in the Python 2.7 version provided by Apple, however I was hoping to learn and use Python 3. The library is present in the Linux version of Python 3.5 that I have tried.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

-Andrew
