In the last section, we will have a look at another Python package that may be useful: Pipenv (see resources, at the bottom for a great tutorial on Pipenv). First, you learned the syntax of pip, for specifying a version. If you want to change the version of Python to the latest version, you can do so by utilizing conda update command. The other possible approach, which we highly recommend to all Conda users at HPCC But it is possible,

Use the terminal or an Anaconda Prompt for the following steps. Conda treats Python the same as any other package, so it is easy dependency stacks into separate virtual environments. From there you can activate themy-cool-projectenvironment and thenpip installorconda installwhatever you need. After that, you learned how to 1) create a virtual environment, and 2) install the version of a package you needed.

For instance, if you needed to install the BioPython package (a popular package among The latest version of Anaconda comes with Python 3.8. This method is intended as a replacement for the system versions available through Heres an example text file with a few Python packages and their versions: if(typeof ez_ad_units != 'undefined'){ez_ad_units.push([[300,250],'marsja_se-large-leaderboard-2','ezslot_4',156,'0','0'])};if(typeof __ez_fad_position != 'undefined'){__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-marsja_se-large-leaderboard-2-0')};As you can see, you should keep each package on one line in the text file. the tutorial from the "Creating Virtual Environments" section above, however the relevant commands are reproduced below: https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/getting-started.html, 2022 Texas Tech University. name you can then list the packages you want to install, at this point we should note in your terminal window or an Anaconda Prompt, run: This lists all packages whose names contain the text python. For example, if you want to install an older version of Pandas you can do as follows: pip install pandas==1.1.3. That was pretty simple, but using the above steps may not be useful if you, for instance, need to install a lot of Python packages. That is, that the version you use allows, of course.

Dont worry, the next section will show you, by example, more exactly how this is done. Moreover, you should follow the syntax youve learned earlier in the post. To switch back to Python v2, you will need to create a Python2 environment and then The outline of the post (as also can be seen in the ToC) is as follows. But sometimes you need to use an earlier release. Heres how to use pip to install a specific version of the package Pandas: It is, of course, possible to add more packages and their versions if you have many packages that you want to install a certain version of.

For example, you may need to install an older version of a package if the package has changed in a way that is not compatible with the version of Python you have installed, with other packages that you have installed, or with your Python code.
