    Try the two commands from the command-line (rather than from within the
    Python interpreter/REPL).


IOW, run pip or python from a command.com <http://command.com> or powershell or cygwin bash.


Yes, thank you @Dan, I don't use MS-Win!

The fact that the two (version) commands are being typed in response to a ">>>" prompt indicates that Python is already running, yet they are BASH/Windows command-line/DOS-box commands!
