How to run a python code

python mypython.py

Install a new module

The Python Package Index (PyPI) is the definitive list of packages (or modules)

sudo apt-get install python-pip
pip install SomePackage
pip show --files SomePackage
pip install --upgrade SomePackage
pip uninstall SomePackage

If a package has been bundled by its creator using the standard approach to bundling modules (with Python’s distutils tool), all you need to do is download the package, uncompress it and type:

python setup.py install

How to list all installed modules

help('modules')

How to find the location of installed modules

There are different ways

  1. python -v
  2. import MODULENAME
  3. help('MODULENAME')

Using this way, I find the 'RPi' module is installed under /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages.
