R: Python executable

py_exe {reticulate} | R Documentation

## Python executable

### Description

Get the path to the Python executable that `reticulate` has been configured to use. If Python has already been initialized, then `reticulate` will choose the currently-active copy of Python.

### Usage

    py_exe()

### Details

This can occasionally be useful if you'd like to interact with Python (or its modules) via a subprocess; for example you might choose to install a package with `pip`:

    system2(py_exe(), c("-m", "pip", "install", "numpy"))

and so you can also have greater control over how these modules are invoked.

### Value

The path to the Python executable `reticulate` has been configured to use.
