1. Python Install and Pip dependency management - jcmwright80/work-experience GitHub Wiki

In this first tutorial we want to make sure you have python 3.11 installed and Pip for dependency management, we will then create a simple python function and check it runs.

Step 1. install Python 3.11 from python.org make sure you add Python to you PATH during installation then check it installed correctly by running python --version from the command line.

Step 2. Read about dependency managers for programming languages and make sure you understand why they are important and how to use Pip for python within a project.

Step 3 create a new python project with a requirements.txt file at its root for managing dependencies, install pytest using pip and ensure its in your requirements.txt file. Then create a maths_utils.py file with at least one simple function like add(a, b) that returns the sum of the two inputs and check it runs from the command line.
