So I tried different methods to install it and typed „Python“ in my command prompt and imported selenium. It worked fine. Then, I typed it into my shell and got an error. Why is it working in the command prompt but not in the actual shell?

One common problem (and answer -- monthy on stackoverflow) is that you 
have more than one python binary installed; do not have module xyz 
installed for all of them; and are running different binaries to get the 
different responses.
