You should specify the MPI4py program file at the mpirun command. Since you
don't have a hostfile yet, you don't need to specify it in the command.

For example, in order to run a program named "test.py" with 4 MPI processes
you can use:

If using Python 2:
mpirun -np 4 python2 test.py

If using Python 3:
mpirun -np 4 python3 test.py
