Instructions for Conda environment creation

The following is not necessary if you have a recent version of Anaconda installed on your computer. If you want to create a virtual environment specifically for this tutorial, we provide an environment configuration file. From the terminal follow these steps:

Change to course folder

cd tdwi_machine_learning

Create the course environment

conda env create

wait for the environment to create, this may take a few minutes

Activate the environment (Mac/Linux)

source activate tdwi

Activate the environment (Windows)

activate tdwi

Check that your prompt changed to

(tdwi) $

Now you can run jupyter notebook from within the environment.

Troubleshooting

Updating Conda

If you have installed Anaconda a long time ago, you may want to update it by running

conda update conda

and then

conda update anaconda
