I am using python IDLE and after executing the following I am getting this import error

>>> from selenium import webdriver
>>> browser=webdriver.Firefox()


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\saish\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 74, in start

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Your exception is clear:

WebDriverException: Message: 'geckodriver' executable needs to be in PATH.

You have to specify the path to the geckodriver:

driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'/patToYour/geckodriver')
