title: How to install a module on Python?
body: <p>Okay, so, I'm actually a beginner in programming Python, and I only found out yesterday how you were supposed to encode <code>pip install ModuleName</code> in the Python command line and not in the interactive shell. I'm trying to download a lot of modules, such as the Send2Trash module, Pyperclip, Requests, Beautiful Soup, and Selenium.</p>
  
  <p>Before I checked the forums about installing modules, I found out how we needed to have the pip tool. I'm a Windows user, but for some reason, I didn't have the 'Scripts' folder installed when I downloaded Python. I didn't know we needed it, so I used raw scripts from GitHub, setup.py, and copy pasted the script into the File Editor in Python, ran it in the interactive shell, and tried to import the module I needed. It worked for the Pyperclip and the Requests module; no errors popped up after I imported them using <code>import pyperclip</code> or <code>import requests</code>, but when I tried the same procedure for the rest of the modules I needed, there were some errors.</p>
  
  <p>Also, when I tried to download the modules on pypi.python.org, I tried to open it using the interactive shell, but then something pops up, 'The file's encoding is invalid for Python3.x...', and when I click 'OK', it's going to say 'Failed to Decode', and close everything.</p>
  
  <p>So, after reading forum after forum, I found out how to download pip, and was also able to download setuptools and wheel. I'm not sure if it's <em>really</em> already downloaded, but I was able to get the 'Scripts' folder that wasn't there before, so I guess so. I also already went into my <code>PATH</code> using the edit environment for your account thing, and I edited the <code>Path</code> variable so its value would lead to my 'Scripts' folder. Please do tell me if I did the right thing here.</p>
  
  <p>So, following the advice of the forums, I tried to install the modules I needed by typing <code>pip install ModuleName</code> in the Python command line instead of the interactive shell, but it still gave me a Syntax Error. I also tried it in Command Prompt, typing the same code <code>pip install ModuleName</code>, but when I clicked Enter, nothing happens; no errors or anything. It seemed like my install was accepted, but when I tried importing the module in the interactive shell, it still gave an Import Error.</p>
  
  <p>Please tell me what I did wrong throughout my process, and how to properly install the modules I need. I would include pictures into this, but it seems I can only add two before my reputation becomes 10, and I'm pretty new here, so... If there's anything I need to elaborate on about my problem, don't hesitate to ask, and I'll try my best.</p>
