Conda is another way in which you can install Python packages, though its development and maintenance is provided by another Anaconda company. An advantage of the Anaconda distribution is that it comes with over 100 very popular Python packages, so you can start elbowing in Python straight away. You can download conda from the following link: https://www.anaconda.com/download/.

Installing packages with conda is just as easy as with pip—just run conda install <package_name>; for example, conda install requests.

The conda repository is independent of the official Python repository and does not find all of the Python packages that are in PyPI, but you will find all of the Python networking libraries such as requests (https://anaconda.org/anaconda/requests), urllib, and socket.
