Question

I want to run python code in Microsoft Visual Studio Code but it gives an error:

\"Linter pylint is not installed\"

I installed:

Answer 1

Check the path pylint has been installed to, by typing which pylint on your terminal.

You will get something like: /usr/local/bin/pylint

Copy it.

Go to your vscode settings on the preferences tab and find the line that goes

"python.linting.pylintPath": "pylint"

Edit the line to be

"python.linting.pylintPath": "/usr/local/bin/pylint",

replacing the value "pylint" with the path you got from typing which pylint

Save your changes and reload vscode.
