Anaconda is a (free) wrapped Python distribution, meaning it comes with a number of libraries pre-installed. The installation process is pretty straightforward (instructions below for Mac OS X):
- click here for installer (python3.4): http://continuum.io/downloads#py34
- download installer, double-click .pkg file
- follow installation wizard
Heads up! This installation edits your system search path. You can see this using any of these steps:
echo $PATHwhich python- look at your
~/.profilefile
If you don't like this, you can revert the change & create a separate shortcut to Anaconda:
- edit
~/.profile - create a symbolic link with
ln -s(seeman lnfor help)
