#1

first guided project:
i tried opening dataset i downloaded and gave me this response

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/Consult_Room_3/Downloads/python_scripts/googleplaystore.csv'

Are you on Windows, Mac, or Linux?

If Windows always store your path variable string using r” “ which pass the string as raw, so do not need to need double back slash \

On Mac or any Unix/Linux system pass as in your example. ie forward slash /

The best way is to have the file you are importing on your working directory so do not need to worry about paths.
