How to Install and Use Pip - The Essential Python Package Manager
-
Pip is a package manager for Python that lets you install and manage packages from PyPI. It comes pre-installed with latest Python versions.
-
To check if Pip is installed, run 'pip --version' in terminal. If not installed, get latest Python which includes Pip.
-
You can also install Pip separately by running a Python script that downloads and installs it.
-
After install, verify by running 'pip --version' or 'pip --help'. If it runs without error, Pip is installed successfully.
-
With Pip ready, you can now install Python packages needed for your projects like AI/ML libraries. Start with Python basics before complex projects.
