What is Python?
Python is a scripting language that runs on Linux, Windows, Macintosh, mobile operating systems, and even PlayStation platforms. Due to Python’s many capabilities, it has become one of the favorite languages of web developers. Big companies like Google, Yahoo, Instagram, NASA, YouTube and… are using it at a high level.
Python is cross-platform, meaning that you can run it on a number of different operating systems, including Windows VPS Server.
What is pip in Python?
PIP is a package manager for installing and managing programs written in python. For example, you can use the pip install PACKAGE_NAME command to install Python packages. Pip also helps you to uninstall or update. There are many Python software packages in PyPI (Python Software Source) that you can install via pip.
Before you can install Pip on your server, you’ll need to confirm that Python is installed.
To test installing Python on a Windows server, press the Windows key and type cmd. After the command prompt window opens, type the word python and hit enter. If Python is installed correctly, you should see output similar to what is shown below:
Python 3.7.0 (v3.7.0:1bf9cc5093, Jun 27 2018, 04:59:51) [MSC v.1914 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
