Hi Carson, If you are having big troubles installing Python on Windows (it really should be a click install from the Python download page here https://www.python.org/downloads/) you can use Anaconda to install, which usually makes installing python on problematic windows machines much easier.
Follow this tutorial https://medium.com/@GalarnykMichael/install-python-on-windows-anaconda-c63c7c3d1444 Use this download page: https://www.anaconda.com/download/ Don't get discouraged. Sometimes getting up and running is a bit of a pain, but it will be smooth sailing after you get it in there the first time. Ivan -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
