Where are the python modules stored?

Question

I have recently started learning Python and I have 2 questions relating to modules.

1. Is there a way to obtain a list of Python modules available (i.e. installed

Answer 1

On python command line, first import that module for which you need location.

import module_name

Then type:

print(module_name.__file__)

For example to find out "pygal" location:

import pygal
print(pygal.__file__)

Output:

/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pygal/__init__.py
