Python 2.7 error import ROOT

I installed root.exe in the folder C:\root_v5.34.36, folder C:\root_v5.34.36\bin which contains ROOT.py

When I started a Jupiter Notebook (anaconda), I write :

import sys
sys.path.append("C:\root_v5.34.36\bin")

Then 

import ROOT

And it displays :

ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-2-b332e25ada1f> in <module>()
----> 1 import ROOT

ImportError: No module named ROOT

What's wrong?

You need to run the file thisroot.bat usually found in the config folder of the ROOT directory before starting the notebook application.

This should be done by opening a powershell and typing:

cd  C:\root_v5.34.36
.\config\thisroot.bat
C:\WhereverTheJupyterNotebookApplicationIs\JupyterNotebook.exe

Try changing the root bin path to sys.path.append("C:\\root_v5.34.36\\bin")
