pip install not working for pandas + numpy

Question

I am new to Python and am trying to pip install the pandas, numpy and a few other libraries, but it won't work.

My method is:

go to command prompt and type python -m pip install pandas --user - I have also tried every other way like pip install etc. Each time i do it it just says syntax error. Solutions?

Thank you.

Are you trying to use pip from within a python interpreter? Pip should actually be called from the command line, outside of python. — Michael Delgado

You should not use pip in python CLI. You must use pip in your system CLI like Windows powershell.

use command below to install packages :
pip install pachakge-name

for example:
pip install numpy scipy matplotlib pandas
Or you can do this one by one. Each package in single line of pip install
