Exception while intalling jupyter notebook

[bmohanraj91]

my question here

I am trying to install jupyter notebook systems in my linux machine, I checked their website which states

pip3 install jupyter

could download the jupyter for me. So I tried but it throws Exception. Need help . I have mentioned only the Exception part of it below.

pip3 install jupyter

Exception:

Run the install process as administrator

Or (as you are already using user installed python) use --user parameter to enforce local installation.

Output:
pip3 install --user jupyter

I used sudo command and installation worked fine. This command is informative, Thanks
