However the description of how to get modules from PyPi has left me confused. Ive only recently downloaded python so it already has pip installed. As I understand it I have to write certain text into the command prompt (I’m using windows 10). It tells me that python -m is not recognised.

Please read https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html, especially 
sections 3.3 and 3.4, and possibly 
http://pythoncentral.io/add-python-to-path-python-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command/

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
