Run   locate pip3   it should give you a list of results like this    lt path gt  pip3   lt path gt  pip3 x   go to  usr local bin to make a symbolic link to where your pip3 is located  ln -s   lt path gt  pip3 x  usr local bin pip3

There is no need to install virtualenv  Just create a workfolder and open your editor in it  Assuming you are using vscode     mkdir Directory  amp  amp  cd Directory  code     It is the best way to avoid breaking Ubuntu linux dependencies by messing around with environments  In case anything goes wrong  you can always delete that folder and begin afresh  Otherwise  messing up with the ubuntu linux python environments could mess up system apps OS  including the terminal   Then you can press shift P and type python select interpreter  Choose any version above 3  After that you can do   pip3 -v   It will display the pip version  You can then use it for installations as    pip3 install Library
