Thanks. Much appreciated. >>> "Adelman, Joshua L." <[email protected]> 08/26/15 6:55 PM >>> body{font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px} Hi Cam, I just fired up my workstation running OSX 10.6.8, updated Anaconda to v2.3 and then opened an ipython notebook, did some basic numpy and plotting stuff and everything seemed to work as expected. No promises that there won’t be other hiccups, but it seems to work ok, despite the claim to need OSX 10.7+. Good luck with the workshop.

Our python lesson is in the afternoon so I’ll have to time to sort it out with them in the morning. Thanks, Cam On August 26, 2015 at 12:04:20 PM, Adelman, Joshua L.

I remember reading that the Anaconda installer gives this warning about only supporting newer versions of OSX, but I don’t remember it being a problem. Before using, what is now, an outdated version of Anaconda, if possible I would check with the learner if they could attempt to download the newest version of Anaconda and check that it works. I’m not sure if that’s feasible in terms of asking them to start up an ipython notebook. I can try turning on my old workstation tonight and grabbing the newest anaconda and then loading up a few of the lesson notebooks though and see if they work myself. That might avoid the issue of asking the learner to validate their own environment.

The Anaconda installer says it is for OS X 10.7 and above. I had a quick look but couldn’t find older releases of Anaconda. Does anyone happen to know if Anaconda will work on older versions of OS X? I don’t have an OS X of that vintage to test myself.
