line below.
There are two ways to build a virtual environment: installing it generally or specifically
for Python. Using the provided command helps to avoid installation errors and ensures that the
dependencies required for each project are installed without interfering with other projects or the
system's Python installation. A virtual environment is beneficial to developers in that it
helps maintain project stability and avoids compatibility issues between package versions.
Note: you can change the python version ex: *python3.8, python3.9, python3.10
To start using the virtual environment, you need to activate it. You can do this by running
the activate script located in the `bin` directory of your virtual environment. On Linux, use the
following command:
Before installing the library requirements, you should upgrade an existing package PIP
to the latest version. You can use the command.
Followed by the name of the package, this command will download and install the latest version,
replacing the older version that was previously installed.
With the environment activated, you can install all the required packages. These will be installed
in the virtual environment and will not affect the global Python installation.
Once all is ready, run the main program in the ‘src’ directory. On your terminal, you can type the
following command to run the project.</p>Clone This Repository
