Hello people. I'm looking for FP examples that are very simple (very few lines, one-liners are even better) and that totally look like sorcery to a traditional imperative programmer. Can you help me with that? I want to show some old school programmers who are friends of mine but keep …

Do you have several Python versions? Sounds like the module is not installed for the python.exe that gets called when you type "python". Double check your PATH variable. Also, why don't you try calling django-admin directly? Do this: Locate your Python installation folder (usually C:\python34), in there there must be …

You normally install modules using pip install <package_name>. If everything goes well, you just need to import the module into your programs. Have you tried this? What errors did you get?

I'm not very experienced but I have been doing exactly what jakedrake333 suggests for 2 years and it DOES work. Imust add that trying to make a program that is useful for your own job is also a way of keeping yourself motivated and engaged with the project.
