From the standard python documentation on the web at https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html, this is a standard read-only variable across all python versions:
“A string giving the absolute path of the executable binary for the Python interpreter, on systems where this makes sense. If Python is unable to retrieve the real path to its executable, sys.executable will be an empty string or None.” HTH Peter From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Farley, Peter Sent: Friday, December 13, 2024 5:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Python SDK Question The value of `sys.executable` is the string that represents the full path and program name of the python that is executing the print statement. IOW, “/usr/lpp/IBM/cyp/v3r10/pyz/bin/python3” is the program that is executing.

He's been going "in circles" trying to find a description of below object and its properties (other than ".executable"). He's not sure if it is unique to the Python SDK environment or not? $ python3 -c "import sys; print(sys.executable)" /usr/lpp/IBM/cyp/v3r10/pyz/bin/python3 Anyone have answer or know where to point him to to get answers?
