Installing packages in python

gistfile1.txt

If pip isn’t installed install pip by going to the command line and typing:

>>>sudo easy_install pip

#sudo stands for super user d.

Once pip is installed you can install packages by typing:

>>>sudo pip install <package name>

or

>>>pip install <package name>

ex:

>>>sudo pip install virtualenv
…downloading etc//

You can check which modules you have installed on your computer with the pip freeze command like so:

>>>pip freeze
and a list of installed modules will appear.
