The dateutil module provides powerful extensions to the standard datetime module, available in Python. Using the datetime module under the hood, this package allows: 
- Computing of relative deltas (next month, year, day of week etc.)
- Computing of dates based on recurrence rules
- Generic parsing of dates in string format
- Timezone implementations

dateutil can be installed from PyPI using pip
```
pip install python-dateutil
```

The Python Imaging Library adds image processing capabilities to your Python interpreter. This library provides extensive file support, an efficient internal representation, and fairly powerful image processing capabilities. 

A few possible uses of this library includes
- Image Archives
- Image Display
- Image Processing 

pip can be installed with pip
```
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -- upgrade Pillow
```

python imaging library (PIL / Pillow)

This package allows you to call any program as if it were a function. It works by running the binary commands on your system by dynamically resolving your $PATH, and then wrapping the binary in a function. 

To install sh, use the command:
```
pip install sh
