This means that the system should look for programs in the directories:

* `/usr/local/bin`
* `/usr/bin`
* `/bin`
* `/usr/sbin`
* `/sbin`

```plaintext
C:\Program Files\Python312\Scripts;C:\Program Files\Python312;C:\Windows\System32
```

This means that the system should look for programs in the directories:

* `C:\Program Files\Python312\Scripts`

También puedes crear una variable de entorno solo para una **invocación específica de un programa**, que está disponible solo para ese programa, y solo durante su duración.

Para hacer eso, créala justo antes del programa en sí, en la misma línea:

<div class="termy">

```console
// Crea una env var MY_NAME en línea para esta llamada del programa
$ MY_NAME="Wade Wilson" python main.py

// Ahora puede leer la variable de entorno

Isso significa que o sistema deve procurar programas nos diretórios:

* `/usr/local/bin`
* `/usr/bin`
* `/bin`
* `/usr/sbin`
* `/sbin`

## Server Machine and Server Program { #server-machine-and-server-program }

There's a small detail about names to keep in mind. 💡

The word "**server**" is commonly used to refer to both the remote/cloud computer (the physical or virtual machine) and also the program that is running on that machine (e.g. Uvicorn).

---

Then the next concepts to consider are all about the program running your actual API (e.g. Uvicorn).

## Program and Process { #program-and-process }

We will talk a lot about the running "**process**", so it's useful to have clarity about what it means, and what's the difference with the word "**program**".

### What is a Program { #what-is-a-program }

The word **program** is commonly used to describe many things:

* `/bin`
* `/usr/sbin`
* `/sbin`

//// tab | Windows

```plaintext
C:\Program Files\Python312\Scripts;C:\Program Files\Python312;C:\Windows\System32
```

Das bedeutet, dass das System nach Programmen in den Verzeichnissen suchen sollte:

* `C:\Program Files\Python312\Scripts`
* `C:\Program Files\Python312`
* `C:\Windows\System32`

## Máquina Servidora e Programa Servidor { #server-machine-and-server-program }

Existe um pequeno detalhe sobre estes nomes para se manter em mente. 💡

A palavra "**servidor**" é comumente usada para se referir tanto ao computador remoto/nuvem (a máquina física ou virtual) quanto ao programa que está sendo executado nessa máquina (por exemplo, Uvicorn).
