Conceptual Review (page 7 of 55) |
To make a PyCharm project, do the following:
1. Create a folder on your operating system. This folder must be a folder and not a .zip folder. If you have a .zip folder, extract all the files from the .zip folder to a standard folder on your operating system. The easiest way to use PyCharm is via projects, which require creating a folder first and putting all your files in that folder.
2. Open PyCharm.
3. Click "New Project". This option should contain the "+" icon, but it might be different depending on the version of PyCharm that you are using.
4. Click the folder icon in the "Location" text box. Navigate to the folder that you created in #1.
5. Click "Project venv" to create an isolated virtual python interpreter that will be used for this project.
6. Navigate to the python.exe that you want to use to create the python virtual interpreter for the project.
7. If the folder that you selected in #4 is not empty, then you will get a warning message. Click the "Create from existing sources" button.
