How to download and install python modules? - 20AJ0931 - Mar-20-2017
I am new to python and only know basic programming. I want to start working with modules. Especially the 'wmi' module. How do I download and install it.

python comes with pip, so use that
pip install wmithen test with
import wmi

Also, to browse modules that are available (searching by subject), visit: https://pypi.python.org/pypi
And you can find wheels here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
to install from a wheel, download the wheel to your favorite directory,
change to that directory and use
pip install wheel nameWheels are named (on gohike) like:
- ad3‑2.0.2‑cp27‑cp27m‑win32.whl
- ad3‑2.0.2‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl
- ad3‑2.0.2‑cp34‑cp34m‑win32.whl
- ad3‑2.0.2‑cp34‑cp34m‑win_amd64.whl
- ad3‑2.0.2‑cp35‑cp35m‑win32.whl
- ad3‑2.0.2‑cp35‑cp35m‑win_amd64.whl
then the 32 and 64 are for 32 bit and 64 bit os.

download it from the internet and install it or use pip

I'd try to use pip first, directly from the net.
If there's any problem (most work ok), and there is a wheel on gohike,
download that next and use pip to install
finally, you can download the package, find the setup.py file and run:
python setup.py install
