Upgrading pip

Anaconda comes with a slightly outdated version of the python package manager, pip. This can cause problems when we try to install the CNTK package. So, before we install the CNTK package, let's upgrade the pip executable.

To upgrade the pip executable, open the Anaconda prompt and execute the following command:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

This will remove the old pip executable and install a new version in its place.
