Cannot install PyAudio using pip syntax error

Question

Im using Windows 10 on python 3.6.3, and i try to download the module PyAudio using pip by using the script.

python -m pip install pyaudio  

It then gives me a syntax error.

>>> python -m pip install pyaudio
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I definitely have pip because i have been able to import it to python shell without any errors. I have been inputting this into python's shell and python's command prompt.

Answer 1

The problem you have it that you are executing >>> python -m pip install pyaudio SyntaxError: invalid syntax from inside the python shell. You need to execute python -m pip install pyaudio from the command prompt instead without going into the python shell
