When I give the command for installing the ionic@beta
npm i -g --verbose ionic@beta
I get the following reply in the cmd:

npm info ok
Does it mean that I have installed Ionic@beta???
Once I give the following command:
ionic -v
It shows me the following:
'ionic' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
