Cannot install urllib2 for python 2.7

Question

I am trying to install the urllib2 module for python 2.7 (I, as usual, use the pip install command), but I have an error

No suitable distribution found for urllib2 ..

What should I do?

Answer 1

You do not need to specify urlib / urllib2

In Python 2.7 , urllib and urllib2 comes with python.

import urllib 

OR

 import urllib2 

In Python 3+, urllib2 is replaced with urllib.request.

  import urllib.request as urllib2
