Python pip command and pythonpip command

I. Introduction

Pip is a tool for installing and managing Python packages. It is a replacement of easy_install. Distribute is a replacement of setuptools (the Setuptools package is not maintained later), and pip is a replacement of easy_install. The installation of pip requires setuptools or distribute. If you are using Python3.x, you can only use distribute because Python3.x does not support setuptools.
