Installing Python

Python Installation

The following is our recommended approach for installing python for dexp usage on Windows, OSX, and Ubuntu(Linux).

Windows and OSX:

In general, we recommend installing python via anaconda (full distribution) miniconda (lighteight). Anaconda tends to be very 'heavy' and is only recommended for python beginners...

Ubuntu:

For Ubuntu (20.04) / Linux you can simply do:

1- Download the latest shell script

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

2- Make the miniconda installation script executable

chmod +x Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

3- Run miniconda installation script

./Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
