thanks for the help!

Hi @SupremeSadat It does not allow me to install the packages and shows SyntaxError: invalid syntax for !pip install -q or pip install or anything like that. I also tried installing the pip itself by using the code python -m ensurepip --default-pip still the same problem. I appreciate your help

If you trying to install packages of repl.it webiste, then you have to use the package selector on the left side. if you trying to install pip on you computer, the best thing to do is look up a tutorial on youtube on how to install pip. you use pip install inside the windows console. might need to used pip3 install. could you post a screen shot showing the problem. thanks

Thanks @SupremeSadat .The packages on the left side worked fine. I thought maybe I can use pip on repl.it the same as you can use it on colab.

The ‘description’ property is missing in pyproject.toml file and issue will resolve if you add description = “” in pyproject.toml file.
