🔒 help with creating and changing a venv.

[silent wagon]

Is it possible to create a venv in a code, then change the current location to it? If so, how can I do that?

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

!d subprocess might work

subprocess

Source code: Lib/subprocess.py

The subprocess module allows you to spawn new processes, connect to their input/output/error pipes, and obtain their return codes. This module intends to replace several older modules and functions:

os.system
os.spawn*
```  Information about how the [`subprocess`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/subprocess.html#module-subprocess) module can be used to replace these modules and functions can be found in the following sections.
