    Installing Python and PYQT

    Downloading Python

    Copy and paste the following onto the address line on your browser (or click on the link )
    https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-340 . The screen below will be displayed.

    Click on the download link for Python 3.4.0 and the screen below will be displayed. You should
    download one of the Windows files at the bottom of the list. The file you download will depend on
    whether you are running a 32 bit or 64 bit version of Windows (If you are not sure how to check this,
    post a question on the group site and I will post instructions on how to check).
    Download the file and run it, do not change any of the selected options. Python will be installed. If
    you get any errors (unlikely) post screenshots on the group site and I will assist you.

    Type the link https://sourceforge.net/projects/pyqt/files/PyQt4/PyQt-4.11.4/ paste in your browser


    address line. Press enter and the screen below will be displayed.

    Because we downloaded Python 3.4 above, you need a version of PyQt that works with Python 3.4.
    The four downloads highlighted will do. I recommend the version that comes with Qt 5.5.0 (Qt is GUI
    designer, we will discuss it latter). You should check whether the version of Windows you are
    running is 32 bit or 64 bit. Post on the group discussion forums if you need assistance with checking
    this.

    Finally do the following to ensure you can run Python from any folder on your workstation (laptop or
    desktop);

    Change the path variable by doing the following (this will ensure you can run python and PYQT from
    any folder):

    1. Right click on the My Computer (This PC) icon


    2. Click on the properties tab

    3. Click on the advanced systems settings tab.


    4. Click on Environment Variables

    5. Click on Path as shown above then on path again under System Variables. Click on edit.

    6. Click on new and type C:\Python34

    7. Click on new again and type C:\PYQT


    8. Click OK
