Python 3.8 or 3.? Trouble installing packages

[snippsat]

Do you use Linux which distro or do use Windows?
Post exactly what you use.

I tried to check to see if Pip is already installed or not by typing:

pip

pip -V

pip --version

pip3 -V

None of that worked

This seems strange to me if you use Linux.

Are packages such as time, hashlib, hmac, requests, pip, and maybe a few others working properly in Python 3.8?

Here there is a mix time,hashlib,hmac is in standard library.
requests is 3-party module install with pip install requests .
pip(package manager for Python) is a build in part of all newer Python version.
