 You can also use pip to install PyYAML: `pip3 install PyYAML`.
 
 2. Change to the top-level directory of the source code (e.g., `cd open-adventure`).
 
 3. Build with `make`.

-Make sure you have `pip` installed on your system.  If not, you should
-install it first. See https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/
 
 4. Optionally run a regression test on the code with `make check`.
