How do i view my environment variables in Windows 10 VS Code or PyCharm terminal?

Time:04-02

I'm on Windows 10 trying to code in Python and store variables into environment variables.

When I do 'set example=123', the command goes through with no issues that i can see, but when i go to type 'set' on its own so I can see what is stored, I get this:

PS C:\Users\Abrahim\Desktop\New file> set

cmdlet Set-Variable at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
Name[0]:
Set-Variable : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Name' because it is an empty array.
At line:1 char:1
  set
  ~~~
      CategoryInfo          : InvalidData: (:) [Set-Variable], ParameterBindingValidationException
      FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentValidationErrorEmptyArrayNotAllowed,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.SetVariableCommand

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I see some places suggesting that I have to set an environment up. Do I have to set it up if I just need it in that work process? In the online course that I'm in, the person just used env directly and didn't install or set up anything. That's why I'm asking to make sure.

I tried all caps just in case 'SET', 'env', and 'ENV'.
