    Pip Installation on Ubuntu 20.04

    1. Precheck

    By default, Python3 comes with Ubuntu 20.04. Before installing pip, make sure that the Python is already installed. If not installed, check how to install Python3 on Ubuntu.

    To check the Python version use following command.

    $ python3 -V
    
    Output
    Python 3.8.5

    Python3 is already installed on the system.

    2. Pip installation on Ubuntu 20.04 using apt

    To install the Pip3 on Ubuntu, use following command:

    $ sudo apt install python3-pip

    After installation completed, check the installation by following command:

    3. How to use Pip with basic commands example

    Let’s discuss how to use pip with basic commands.

    3.1 Install a package with pip

    There are two ways to install pip packages. You can either install it for the currently logged in user or you can install system wide.
