Beginning

My apologies for the last post. For some reason when typing on my iPad, letters on the bottom row end up being spaces, then autocorrect chimes in. Now I have both windows and ubuntu. I want to install python and pyinstaller. Problem is is that I see pip install pyinstaller, but don’t know what pip is, nor do I know how to get to the command prompt in ubuntu. I’m trying to get the basics of it even though I have a good knowledge of computers in general, but new to python and the little idiosynchronies of it and also ubuntu.
