It's just a general recommendation to have pip updated.

You had all in working on 3.5,
just some problem on 2.7 that could have been fixed Wink

No problem and good luck with C#,
we are here to help if you want to try again in the future.

before you write off python. I would like you to try this method of installing bs4. This is basically as simple as copying 2 directories into your python installation path. 

I made a quick tutorial in doing this method in detail

OK, I could not stand it, I went to bed about 11:PM by 1:AM I was up, came in here and turned the computer on. I hate starting something and not following through with it.
So I download 2.7.12 and installed it. Then I started from the beginning of this Thread and went step by step downloading and installing all the modular that I need right now. I have a working Python 2.7.12 now. It does run the test program. As I have got older my patience as got less and less. I hate getting old. So when I got every thing working I download all the videos form this class I am taking.
I want to thank every one for their help.

Some of us here were born in the first half of the last century, (myself included) so don't feel alone.

May i ask what class this is?
I think they should have used Python 3,this is the best choice for new Python user.
But Beautiful Soup work the same for 2 and 3,so if you learn it for Python 2 it will work Python 3.
I have 2-part tutorial about web-scarping in tutorials you can look at to.
