You have started python in verbose mode. It didn't actually install
anything, it is showing you all the modules that are loaded when
python starts up.

At the end, notice that the prompt is >>>. That is the python
interpreter prompt. Type control-D to exit the interpreter and get
back to the shell prompt.

Near the end, notice that it did also print the version - Python
always does that when it runs interactively. You can also use the
command
  python --version
to print the version number and exit.
