I can't install a package with the pip or pip3 command and I can't install it from the Python Interpreter in PyCharm too. I can't tap on the '+' at the Python Interpreter in PyCharm. I get this error:
pip command not found

`I can't install a package with pip command` - what do you mean by this? Please provide more context to help us answer your question – Cornelius-Figgle Dec 17 '22 at 19:26

It looks like you don't have Python installed at all. Installing PyCharm will not also install Python; that is a separate step. – John Gordon Dec 17 '22 at 19:27

If you installed python 3.10, then that should have come with pip. I don't understand why you don't have pip. – John Gordon Dec 17 '22 at 19:39

Here is what you can try.
- Lets check python installation.
C:\Users\User>python --version
Python 3.10.5
C:\Users\User>
If you get the version as 3.x, then we are good, else goto your python installation directory and copy its path and then add it to your environment variable PATH.
- Check PIP available or not.
C:\Users\User>pip --version
pip 22.3 from C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.10)
C:\Users\User>
if above didn't work then add pip path to PATH environment variable which would be something similar to above output.
- Now we are ready to install any package
Just do pip install package-name
for testing, you can try:
pip install numpy
If it still throws error, try below one
python -m pip install numpy
if it still throws error, then you might need to clean your python installation.

Python modules usually can be installed through `pip3`, but in some cases there's need to install those through package manager, which on ubuntu is `apt` (from debian) or `snap` ( new type of packages developed by Canonical). Add some additional information to your answer and describe steps, what these steps do etc. – Bolderaysky Dec 17 '22 at 19:41

İ wrote sudo apt install python3-pip and i got error again. Package python3-pip is not available,but is referred to by another package.This may mean that package is missing,has been obsoleted or is only available from another source E:Package 'python3-pip' has no installation candidate – Ali Heydarov Dec 17 '22 at 20:01

It looks like you don't have pip installed on $PATH. The following command will run pip without any adjustments to $PATH:
python3 -m pip install <some_module>
Pay attention to the -m, this stands for modules and runs the pip program inside the python3 interpreter (I don't know exact definition here, if anyone wishes to correct me I will update the answer)
However, if this doesn't work then you may not have pip installed, and can be installed by running:
python3 -m ensurepip --upgrade
Then, reload your shell via the following (replace bash with your shell):
exec bash
Running pip --version should now work
