How do I find out my python path using python?

Question

How do I find out which directories are listed in my system’s PYTHONPATH variable, from within a Python script (or the interactive shell)?

Answer 1

For finding out your python path using python you can use the sys.path that might include items that aren't specifically in your PYTHONPATH environment variable. You can use the below-mentioned code:-

import os

try:

user_paths = os.environ['PYTHONPATH'].split(os.pathsep)

except KeyError:

user_paths = []
