Python 2.7: No module named setup tools

Question

I am trying to clone and install the keras package from github. When I run sudo python setup.py install , it says no module named setuptools . I looked at some posts that were for python 3; however, this solutions did not work for me. I am working on a terminal from a windows computer. I am using python 2.7. I tried the following commands: python -m pip install -U pip setuptools from this website: https://packaging.python.org/installing/ . However, nothing seemed to work.

If you are working on Windows then you should be typing batch commands, not bash (Linux, OSX), therefore, sudo ... should not be used by you.

• Firstly, I would recommend to install pip , it will make package update and installation a lot easier. Save it as get-pip.py and run the following in the directory the file is located python get-pip.py . Official pip website .

• Then install upgrade pip which will also install the latest versions of setuptools and wheel with this python -m pip install -U pip setuptools .
