* The **file** that can be **executed** by the operating system, for example: `python`, `python.exe` or `uvicorn`.
* A particular program while it is **running** on the operating system, using the CPU, and storing things on memory. This is also called a **process**.

### What is a Process

The word **process** is normally used in a more specific way, only referring to the thing that is running in the operating system (like in the last point above):

programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
free software.  For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
system.

  Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is

An <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable" class="external-link" target="_blank">environment variable</a> (also known as "env var") is a variable that lives outside of the Python code, in the operating system, and could be read by your Python code (or by other programs as well).

You can create and use environment variables in the shell, without needing Python:

Your code needs to run on [all versions of Java that Gradle supports](platforms/documentation/docs/src/docs/userguide/releases/compatibility.adoc) and across all supported operating systems (macOS, Windows, Linux). The [Gradle CI system](http://builds.gradle.org/) will verify this, but here are some pointers that will avoid surprises:

      The HTTP server and client now reject requests and responses containing
