PrintThere are many Python packages available for use, and there are a couple of different ways to effectively manage (install, uninstall, update) packages. The two package managers that are commonly used are pip and conda. In the following sections, we will discuss each of them in more detail. At the end of the section, we will discuss the merits of the two tools and make recommendations for their use.
We will be doing some more complicated technical "stuff" here so the steps might not work as planned because everyone’s PC is configured a little differently. If you get stuck please check in with the instructor sooner rather than later. A quick troubleshooting / debugging process can involve testing to see if running the command or Command Prompt as Administrator resolves the issue, trying the Windows Command prompt instead of the Python Command prompt (or vice versa), and, if none of that has helped, trying the tech support staple of restarting your PC.
