Installation Guide for Windows Miniconda
Go to the Miniconda Download page [Miniconda Download]. Download the appropriate (32- or 64-Bit) Python 3.7 version of Miniconda.
- Double click on the .exe file and click Install.
- Read and agree to the licensing terms.
- Select if you want to install for ‘Just Me’ or ‘All Users’. If you are installing for ‘All Users’, you must have Administrator privileges.
- You will be prompted to select the installation location. By default, Anaconda should try to install in your home directory. We recommend accepting this default. Click Install.
- Anaconda PATH environment variable
- You will be asked if you want to add Anaconda to your PATH environment variable. Do not add Anaconda to the PATH because it can interfere with other software.
- You will be asked if you want Anaconda to be your default version of Python. We recommend ‘Yes’.
- Click Install.
Create a new Conda environment with tensorflow
To install the current release of CPU-only TensorFlow we create a new environment with name tf and install the package tensorflow.
- Open the Anaconda Command Prompt from windows start menu, type:
conda create --name tf tensorflow
- To activate and use the new environment, type:
conda activate tf
Install Jupyter
[Jupyter] Notebooks is an easy-to-use, interactive, web-based editor for writting and executing Python code.
- In the Anaconda Prompt, type
conda install jupyter
Once the installation is complete, you can run a jupyter notebook by typing:
jupyter notebook
A Jupyter Notebook interface will appear in your default browser.
Install required packages
Now we install a few packages we need for the course.
- In the Anaconda Command Prompt, type (hit ‘Enter’ after each row)
conda install numpy conda install -c conda-forge matplotlib conda install -c conda-forge pandas conda install -c anaconda pillow
- Press Enter after each row
