What is the current stable version of urllib3?

The current stable version of urllib3 can be checked using the Python Package Index (PyPI) or by using the pip command in the terminal. Please note that the stable version might have changed since then. To check the current stable version, you can perform the following steps:

Check via PyPI:

1. Go to the official PyPI website: https://pypi.org/
2. Search for urllib3.
3. The page for urllib3 will display the latest stable version at the top, under the package name.

Check using pip:

You can also use pip to check the latest version of urllib3 by running the following command in the terminal:

pip show urllib3

This command will show you detailed information about the installed urllib3 package, including the version. If you don't have urllib3 installed, you can check the latest version available for installation using:

pip search urllib3

Please note that as of pip version 10.0.0, the pip search command may not function as expected due to changes in the PyPI API. In that case, you can use the following command to list all available versions:

pip install urllib3==

This command will deliberately fail but will list all the versions of urllib3 that pip can install, with the latest version being at the bottom.

Alternatively, you can use the pip list command with the --outdated or --uptodate flag to see the latest version information for all installed packages, including urllib3:

pip list --outdated

or

pip list --uptodate

Remember to replace pip with pip3 if you're using Python 3 and have both Python 2 and Python 3 installed on your system.
