Answers:

at the very first in the place you typed "python" type py. I mean type py instead of python. I hope it will work

py src/stats.py –chat_json C:UsersHesamDesktopchat exresult.json –output_dir C:UsersHesamDesktopres.png

If you’re still having problems, try this:

  1. Searching for and click on Edit the system environment variables in the Windows search bar
  2. Click on Environment variables in the bottom right corner
  3. Scroll down under User variables for {YOUR_USERNAME} and double-click on Path
  4. On the right click New and enter in the path to Python on your computer (it should look something like this: C:Users{USERNAME}AppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython{VERSION}) (If you’ve already done this, there should be a entry with the directory to Python already)
  5. Click OK on all opened windows and Apply if allowed
  6. Restart your computer
