Hello,

I'm very sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if someone could help me.

I have just installed sage on my machine, but when I input the command ./sage it is returning the following message

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/Users/aidentripathi/sage/sage/src/bin/sage-ipython", line 9, in <module>

from sage.misc.banner import banner

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sage'

I have currently been trying a few approaches for a few hours now and it is not turning up any results. I was therefore wondering what I should do?

I can see you have a mac. Did you
1) install sage from
https://github.com/3-manifolds/Sage_macOS/releases

and then
2) run the app sage-10-4.app

and then
3) select command line radio button and click "Launch"?

Hello,

I am a little confused? I have been using terminal commands for all of this, am I supposed to be installing an app?

You have not described what version of sage you are running or where you got it or how you installed it. All these can lead to errors.

I'm guessing at the simplest and fastest solution.

If you do what I suggest, after you click launch you will have the command line of sage in a separate window.
