Interpreter Python is Not Available in Path

If you are facing the issue where the interpreter python is not available in path, it means that the system is unable to locate the Python interpreter. This can happen due to a variety of reasons, including an incorrect installation, changes in system settings, or issues with the environment variables.

Steps to Troubleshoot

• Check Python Installation: The first step is to check if Python is installed on your system. You can do this by typing 'python' in the command prompt. If Python is not installed, you can download and install it from the official Python website.
• Verify Python Path: If Python is installed, the next step is to verify the path where it is installed. You can do this by typing 'which python' in the command prompt. This will display the location of the Python interpreter. If the path is incorrect, you can add the correct path to the system environment variables.
• Update Environment Variables: If the path is correct, but still you are facing the issue, you may need to update your system environment variables. You can add the path to the Python interpreter to the PATH variable. This can be done by going to the Advanced System Settings and selecting Environment Variables. Then, add the path to the Python interpreter to the PATH variable.
