title: Why does my VS Code not recognize 'python' as an internal or external command
body: <p>so I just considered using VS Code for writing python as i'm settling into programming. After following the full guide here: <a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/python-tutorial" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/python-tutorial</a> and everything seemed ok.</p>
  
  <p>But my code wont run, but runs well in my PyCharm but on VS Code it pops this error below:</p>
  
  <p>"'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
  operable program or batch file." </p>
  
  <p>I have followed threads here advising reboot of computer and all but its not working for me, I would love to at least know what the problem is because my decision to use VSC is because i'd like to have one IDE that supports more languages so that write in one place or at least a few IDEs. </p>
  
  <p>Any help will be appreciated.
  Thanks in advance. </p>
