Example 6: where are python libraries installed in windows

Python usually stores its library (and thereby your site-packages folder) 
in the installation directory. So, if you had installed Python to 
C:\Python\, the default library would reside in C:\Python\Lib\ 
and third-party modules should be stored in C:\Python\Lib\site-packages.
