pytorchbook (or anything else you find easy to remember). Then, you need to open
a terminal (in Ubuntu) or Anaconda Prompt (in Windows or macOS) and type the
following command:
$ conda create -n pytorchbook anaconda
The command above creates a Conda environment named pytorchbook and
includes all Anaconda packages in it (time to get a coffee, it will take a while…). If
you want to learn more about creating and using Conda environments, please
check Anaconda’s "Managing Environments" [21] user guide.
Did it finish creating the environment? Good! It is time to activate it, meaning,
making that Python installation the one to be used now. In the same terminal (or
Anaconda prompt), just type:
$ conda activate pytorchbook
Your prompt should look like this (if you’re using Linux):
(pytorchbook)$
or like this (if you’re using Windows):
(pytorchbook)C:\>
Done! You are using a brand new Conda environment now. You’ll need to activate
it every time you open a new terminal, or, if you’re a Windows or macOS user, you
can open the corresponding Anaconda prompt (it will show up as Anaconda
Prompt (pytorchbook), in our case), which will have it activated from the start.
IMPORTANT: From now on, I am assuming you’ll activate the
pytorchbook environment every time you open a terminal or
Anaconda prompt. Further installation steps must be executed
inside the environment.
