Edit for extra clarification:
The software program I utilize is called CASA, a acronym for Community Astronomy Software Applications. Its functionality is restricted to operating systems such as Linux and macOS.

Within the tutorial, it explains:
- import os
os.environ[“CASAPATH”] = “/path/to/your/casa/installation:$PATH”
os.environ[“PYTHONEXE”] = “path/to/python.exe”
import sys
sys.path.append("/PATH_TO_ANALYSIS_SCRIPTS/")
import analysisUtils as au
The directory `/PATH_TO_ANALYSIS_SCRIPTS/` contains the path to the analysis scripts that were extracted directly from the TAR file. When the installation is complete, start CASA and you will have access to all its features.
analysisUtils module.”
The location of the CASA initialization file seems to elude me. The file they used as an example is exactly like it’s done on the Linux one.
When I tried creating a file in another location, however, I was met with:
command not discovered: import
I’m struggling to determine a solution since I’ve been unable to locate information regarding the issue with importing not being recognized.
