'MacPorts- port: command not found?
I am a beginning programmer playing around with making fractal music in python. I am thinking of using the mingus module to play the notes, however mingus need to have fluidsynth installed. I am trying to install fluidsynth using MacPorts. I have the fluidsynth files. When i run
sudo port install fluidsynth
on my Mac terminal it asks for my password, which i enter. It then says
sudo: port: command not found"
What is going wrong? I am on a macOs mojave, if that helps.

I suspect that you may have not installed MacPorts correctly. Follow the MacPorts documentation to install it correctly. Once installed, you can run a command like
port installed
to list all of your ports.
If that worked then you can do this
source ~/.bash_profile
and it should work. See more possible solutions from here

as @Ila says here:
After lots of .bash_profile investigation, it turned out I just needed to reboot the terminal after installing MacPorts.
