What is workable serial port name for MacOS of /dev/cu.usbmodem143301 that can be accepted by Python's Pyserial?

I'm trying to use Python on my Mac Catalina to communicate with my Arduino and keep getting "no such file or directory" when I input the Mac serial port /dev/cu.usbmodem1433301 (Arduino Uno) as indicated in the Arduino Tools/Port list and I run the script. If I can't get a workable port for Python, I might as well not use it.

I just discovered that the usb port on the opposite end of my mac's keyboard is the one that python can communicate with arduino through. The port I was using was 143301 and the one that works (on the caps lock end) is 143101. Made all the difference in the world. Problem solved. Life is good again.
