Building projects in python

#1

When I press control B to build my projects, python files will not build. How can I fix this so that sublime will run my python files? When I type python into my cmd it does not recognize python as an internal or external file but I am sure that I have python on my computer because I use it frequently. I have the python3.6.3 exe

The Python build script shipped with ST expects the python.exe to be available in PATH environment. Means you need to be able to open your cmd and type python to start the interpreter.

If this is not the case, you need to find the location of your python executable (e.g.: C:\Program Files\python36) and add it to the PATH environment variable using the Windows control panel.

Normally the python installer should do that for you and/or install a globally available loader to make the command available.
