59 -I shall be demonstrating the installation on a computer with Ubuntu 18.04 OS installed. The steps are likely to remain very similar for other versions of Ubuntu OS, and also not expected to vary significantly for other Linux distributions. In the latter case, you will find on the Internet about how to carry out the equivalent of the tasks demonstrated here using Ubuntu OS.

61 -We shall make use of virtualenv (virtual environment) in this tutorial. This allows multiple Python projects to coexist on the same computer, even when they might have different, and even conflicting, requirements. It helps isolate projects and thereby preventing unrequested changes in others, when any one of them is updated.
