running python in atom

Question

i'm trying to run python in the atom editor but every time I try to run my code I get this:

[Command: python -u C:\Users\destinee\Documents\pythonProjects\Testing.py]
'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
[Finished in 0.056s]

here is the code I put in:

# this is a test
name = Destinee
print("hi")
print(name)

**I don't kwon if I need to say this or not but I was using the scprit package for runing the code.

check if you have your interpreter configured properly.

The Python interpreter is not on your PATH. Either add it, or use an absolute path to the Python executable in Atom's configuration.

If you can set up a venv, you could try launching Atom from inside the venv.
