Deprecated ‐ Installing Ananconda - xcist/documentation GitHub Wiki

Install Anaconda (SAVE IN CASE WE SWITCH TO THIS).

Follow the instructions for downloading and installing Anaconda. Follow the instructions and download Anaconda for Python 3.7.

  • Make sure you choose your appropriate platform (e.g. Windows, Mac, etc.).
  • Select installing for "Just Me."
  • To simplify finding specific files later, install in a simple location such as C:\anaconda3 (for Windows) rather than the default longer path. Note the instructions - do not install in a path that includes spaces in the name.
  • Accept the installation defaults (not adding Anaconda to your PATH, but registering Anaconda as your default Python).

The installation of Anaconda may take 10-30 minutes depending on the speed of your computer.
