How do I install a python package from a .py file?

Question

I am using Jupyter notebook and is in desperate need of installing the "copy" package.

https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/copy.html

I found the github link as a py file: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.6/Lib/copy.py

The standard method of "!pip install copy" doesn't work.

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement copy (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for copy

Thanks

You dont have to install the copy module because it is part of the standard library. Just use import copy
