I know there are a lot of questions already about confusion between pip and conda, and although the answer here Practical difference between pip and conda comes close to clearing it up for me, it doesn't quite.
I have python2 and python3 installed.
And I have Anaconda Navigator. And in Anaconda Navigator, I can see that I have one Environment called "base(root)".
(1) If I install a package using pip, is that the same as installing using pip3? In other words do both pip and pip3 have a common place where packages get installed?
(2) Similarly if I install a package using Anaconda Navigator, the post referred to above suggests that that package would be installed into the same place if I had installed with pip?
(3) Does pip have the same concept of an "Environment" that conda seems to?
(4) If I am using Visual Studio Code for python dev, do you need to specify an environment where it should look for packages?
Thank you, Paul
