why os.path.isfile returns false if file is other directory?
Which path is used in os.path.isfile(filename) in python. I have file in /home/debian and I have added that path in PYTHONPATH variable still os.path.isfile(filename) returns FALSE.

If filenameis relative, the current working directory (available with os.getcwd()) is used.
PYTHONPATH is only used when importing modules.
