Vpython versions are not available from their website, but according to https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/vpython-users/AmIZF2v4Wkc, "pip install vpython" should work for any version of Python. I entered "pip install vpython" into the windows command prompt. After several minutes of downloading, pip gave me the following error:

This appears to be a bug in vpnotebook, upon which vpython depends. Trying to install vpnotebook in both Python 2.7 and 3.5 fails with the same error, which appears to have been caused by the package's authors not even using a basic linter. I would suggest reporting this to said authors, but there are no contact details, repositories, or project websites listed on the package's PyPI page.
