When I open python (command line), type "python setup.py install"and press Enter, it says the following text:

SyntaxError: Invalaid syntax
>>> pip install dropbox
 File "<stdin>", line 1
    python setup.py install

"Python is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
