# Using environment variables (AEN 4.2.1)

Some Python packages depend on environment variables for correct operation.

EXAMPLE: Theano requires that the directory containing the CUDA compiler is included in the $PATH environment variable in order for GPU acceleration to be enabled.

To change environment variables for all AEN applications, modify the project runtime configuration file `.projectrc`. For more information, see Using Compute Resource Configuration.

`.projectrc` sets several AEN internal environment variables, sets up the project environment and can set additional user environment variables for that project. This file is sourced when a user opens any AEN application—including Jupyter Notebook—and Jupyter kernels will be able to read the included environment variables.
