title: Cannot import Python Statistics Library
body: <p>I have a small python script that needs to do some simple stats on some lists of numbers - the sort of thing the statistics.py library seems suitable for.
  From what I can make out of the info on <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/statistics.html" rel="nofollow">python.org</a>, it should be part of the standard library in python 3.4.1 (on Win 64 bit), but I'm struggling to access the functions.</p>
  
  <p><em>import statistics</em> just gives a 'no module named 'statistics' error</p>
  
  <p>Looking through the python34\Lib directory doesn't seem to show a <em>statistics</em> folder, and creating one and saving the <em>statistics.py</em> file available from python.org doesn't seem to make any difference.</p>
  
  <p>Googling for how to install python libraries gives lots of examples referencing setup.py files and command line sequences, but i don't see how they relate to the statistics.py file available.</p>
  
  <p>I'm obviously missing something (probably obvious!) but being a newbie at this i can't work out what it is. Any pointers?</p>
