installing prospector and updating anaconda packages

[amir]

I have installed anaconda navigator.
In the book "Intro to Python for Computer Science and Data Science: Learning to Program with AI, Big Data and The Cloud", by Prof. Deitel (and also on some web pages), it is mentioned that anaconda pakages can be updated and prospector can be installed using the following commands in the command-line window:
- conda update conda
- pip install prospector

But in the command-line window, some error massages come indicating conda and pip are not excecutable commands or files.
please guide me.
how to run these commands?
Thanks

Most always activate (base) or own enviroment from command line.
if start eg Anaconda Prompt
Will see that (base) enviroment is active,now can test that pip and conda works.

(base) PS C:\Users\Tom> pip -V
pip 22.1 from C:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.10)
(base) PS C:\Users\Tom> conda -V
conda 4.12.0
(base) PS C:\Users\Tom>

I always active myself when use Anaconda or Miniconda as i use cmder
i just have a comand that to all in go,here is a example of the manually way.

# Cd to Scripts folder
C:\
λ cd Anaconda3\Scripts\

# Activate
C:\Anaconda3\Scripts
λ activate.bat

# See that (base) is now active 
(base) C:\Anaconda3\Scripts

# Swict to one of my own enviroments 
(new_env) C:\Anaconda3\Scripts
λ activate new_env

# Now will pip use only this enviroment 
(new_env) C:\
λ pip -V
pip 20.3.3 from C:\Anaconda3\envs\new_env\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.10)
