[Tutor] Getting started with Python

[Aimee Hubbard]

Hi,
I have done some introductory courses with Python, but they did not cover
how to get Python (3.7 version 64 bit) up and running on my own computer. I
have it downloaded on my Windows 10 computer and made sure in my
"Environment Variables" that it has the path
(C:\Users\aimee6\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages).
But whenever I try to run any commands like "python --version" I get this
error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
    python
NameError: name 'python' is not defined

I am just not sure what step I am missing. Any help you can offer would be
greatly appreciated. Thank you so much and I hope you are having a great
night!

Best,

Aimee
