Beginner Python Error - ianmac88 - Aug-30-2022
Hello,
I am extremely new to programming/python and I have been watching thenewboston on YouTube going through his Python Programming playlist. In video 26 he is making a web crawler and when I try to run it I get this message
"ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'"
Any help on how to fix this? I have looked around a bit and found stuff about installing pip3 or something. I don't know how to do this. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

pip should be installed with Python.
Look here for info.

Requests does not come with the standard python installation. Get it from PyPi, install, and then you can import and use.

You want to be in whatever environment you want to install. Base is fine if starting out, but using an environment mgr is recommended (such as venv or conda). Then open a terminal window and type
pip install requests
and follow the directions.
