VPython in Pythod IDEs

[Lillian Fox]

I have downloaded VPython onto my mac using pip3 install vpython in terminal. However, when I try to use vpython in VSCode, it does not recognize any of its commands. I have tried: 

from vpython import *

box()

This code fails. Please respond with any insight, I am also open to using PyCharm.
Thank you

Hi Lillian,

You might have more luck with the VPython users list for questions like this:

https://groups.google.com/g/vpython-users

However, the issue is most likely which version of python VSCode is using. In the lower right hand corner of the VSCode window you’ll see a version number like this:

If you click on the version number, you’ll get a pop-up where you can pick the interpreter you want to use:

You can pick the interpreter you were using when you installed VPython with pip.
