A developer is working on a new Python application and needs to install the requests library to handle HTTP calls. The system is running a Debian-based Linux distribution. Which of the following commands should the developer use to install this specific package for the project using Python's native package manager?
The correct command is pip install requests. pip is the standard package manager for Python, used to install and manage software packages written in Python. The apt command is a system-level package manager for Debian-based distributions and could install a system-wide version of the library, which may not be ideal for project-specific dependencies. npm is the package manager for Node.js and JavaScript, not Python. cargo is the package manager for the Rust programming language.
