Unable to install the "copy" library in Python

Question

I'm trying to install the "copy" library for Python through pip but it can't find it. I've tried the following and similar names, but nothing worked:

pip install copy

Any clue on the real name of the library? I need it to build a docker container.

Thanks!

"copy" is a standard python library, so you don't need to install it just "import copy" in your code. If you need to use a library consider checking out built in libraries first. You can see built in libraries in list in website: https://docs.python.org/3/library/
