The installer takes a few minutes while it dumps thousands of small files onto your hard drive.Ī: Your computer doesn’t naturally understand Python commands.Īt a really low level, it understand commands in its “assembly language” (which you wouldn’t want to have to write by hand).Īll Windows computers are shipped understanding a language called “C” (which, if you don’t want to become a professional programmer, you probably still wouldn’t want to have to write by hand). You will probably want to leave it checked. I’m just installing this to blog about it. This comes checked, and they recommend it, but I already have Python installed elsewhere on my computer.

It says not to do it right in the installer text, so I’m going to leave it un-checked.

Add “Anaconda” to my “PATH” environment variable.

Next, the installer is going to ask me whether I want to do either of two things. Yes, I called that folder “ ProgramFilesForSoftwareHatingSpaces” – I was feeling a bit pouty when Anaconda complained about my “Program Files” folder I’d set up under “My Documents.”

(Also, I already have another copy of Anaconda on my system, and I think I might have let it install there, and I don’t want to mess it up while writing this blog post.)

It bothers me to forget when software is installed in my \AppData\Local\ hidden folders, so I am going to manually change the installation path on the next screen to C:\Users\MY_USERNAME\Documents\ProgramFilesForSoftwareHatingSpaces\Continuum\miniconda3.

C:\Users\MY_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\miniconda3 (just me), or.

My choice here influences whether the installer suggests installing the program under: I’m going to install this for “just me,” because I don’t have admin rights to install software on my corporate PC. Click “ Next,” then click “ I Agree” on the following screen. You want one for “Python 3.something,” not “Python 2.something.”ĭouble-click the “.exe” file to run setup.

Installing Miniconda & running a Python program Downloadįirst, download Miniconda from Anaconda, Inc. If you’re a serious data scientist, learn the nuts and bolts of Anaconda at Real Python’s “Setting Up Python for Machine Learning on Windows”ĭid you get Miniconda and Spyder installed? Note: This tutorial is aimed at non-programmers who just want to edit a few CSV files with Python. I’ll be screenshotting the process of getting up and running on a Windows 64-bit machine. Still, I respect Chris’s experience, so let’s give it a try! (If your computer will let you, though, consider installing the main, big version of Anaconda software – it’s so much simpler!) (Alternatively, I wrote a tutorial on installing the Windows Store version of Python.) IntroĬhris Moffitt, author of Practical Business Python, recently said on episode 200 of the “Talk Python To Me” podcast that he likes to walk beginners through installing Anaconda’s “ Miniconda” software on their system and adding Excel-friendly plugins like “pandas” by hand.

Plus, even if you install “big Anaconda,” as I like to call it, the instructions on installing & updating “modules” in this documentation may come in handy if you need to install extra modules like “Simple Salesforce” or if you want to update your Python installation in a year. You’ll be much happier than you would following these instructions, which take you through installing “Miniconda” (made by the makers of Anaconda) and adding functionality like “Spyder” and “Pandas” by hand.īut Miniconda takes less space, and may be easier to install without admin rights to your computer, so it’s worth documenting step-by-step. Look for software called “Spyder” in your Start menu, run it, and start coding. Updating a “module” Conda doesn’t know aboutĪfter documenting this process step-by-step, I’ve concluded that the best way to install Python on your computer is to follow these shorter instructions and simply:ĭownload & install software called “Anaconda”.Installing a “module” Conda doesn’t know about.Checking whether “modules” are installed.Setting up an IDE for pleasant programming.Installing Miniconda & running a Python program.Even then i failed Anaconda Navigator and Anaconda Prompt. I even uninstalled this latest version and tried my old installer.

But Anaconda navigator and Anaconda prompt are missing in my Start menu. Downloaded Anaconda and Installed Anaconda.
