What is pip?

pip is a Python package management tool that provides the functions of finding, downloading, installing, and uninstalling Python packages.

Recommendation: "Python TutorialCourse"

Currently, if you download the latest version of the installation package from python.org, it already comes with this tool.

Python 2.7.9 or Python 3.4 or above comes with the pip tool.

pip official website: https://pypi.org/project/pip/

You can use the following command to determine whether it has been installed:

pip --version

If you have not installed it yet , you can use the following method to install:

$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py   # 下载安装脚本
$ sudo python get-pip.py    # 运行安装脚本

Note: Which version of Python is used to run the installation script, pip will be associated with that version. If it is Python3, execute the following command

令：
$ sudo python3 get-pip.py    # 运行安装脚本。

General In this case, pip corresponds to Python 2.7, and pip3 corresponds to Python 3.x.

Some Linux distributions can directly use the package manager to install pip, such as Debian and Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install python-pip
