python script to install pip, and beautifulsoup4

Here's a simple Python script that installs pip and beautifulsoup4:

```python
import os
import sys

# Check if pip is already installed
if not os.path.exists('C:\\Python39\\Scripts\\pip.exe'):  # Replace 'C:\\Python39\\Scripts\\pip.exe' with your Python installation path
    print("Pip is not installed. Installing pip...")
    os.system('python -m ensurepip')
else:
    print("Pip is already installed.")

# Install beautifulsoup4
print("Installing beautifulsoup4...")
os.system('pip install beautifulsoup4')
```

However, if you're using a virtual environment, you might need to activate it before running the script. Here's how you can modify the script to handle that:

```python
import os
import sys

# Check if pip is already installed
if not os.path.exists('C:\\Python39\\Scripts\\pip.exe'):  # Replace 'C:\\Python39\\Scripts\\pip.exe' with your Python installation path
    print("Pip is not installed. Installing pip...")
    os.system('python -m ensurepip')
else:
    print("Pip is already installed.")

# Activate the virtual environment
activate_this = 'C:\\Path\\To\\Your\\Virtual\\Environment\\Scripts\\activate'  # Replace 'C:\\Path\\To\\Your\\Virtual\\Environment\\Scripts\\activate' with your virtual environment path
exec(open(activate_this).read(), {'__file__': activate_this})

# Install beautifulsoup4
print("Installing beautifulsoup4...")
os.system('pip install beautifulsoup4')
```

Remember to replace the paths in the script with your actual Python installation path and virtual environment path.

Alternatively, you can use the `subprocess` module to install pip and beautifulsoup4:

```python
import subprocess

# Install pip
subprocess.run(['python', '-m', 'ensurepip'])

# Install beautifulsoup4
subprocess.run(['pip', 'install', 'beautifulsoup4'])
```

This approach is more Pythonic and avoids using the `os.system` function.
