If you use default installation process you could get anaconda probably in $HOME/anaconda directory. If you don't change .bashrc then you could start anaconda's virtual environment by: source $HOME/anaconda/bin/activate ~/anaconda/ After this command pip will install packages into anaconda's python environment. (without this command it install into distro's python environment) So answer to "somebody's" question is probably that it depends on. Under ubuntu 16.04 which could be similar to Mint I got this: python -V # by default my python is distro's python Python 2.7.12 source $HOME/anaconda3/bin/activate anaconda3 (anaconda3) xyz:~$ python -V # now I could use nice features like f-strings from python 3.6 :) Python 3.6.1 :: Anaconda custom (64-bit) PL. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Using anaconda it could be better to do: conda install python-docx # but this doesnt work or conda install docx # but this doesnt work too Anaconda has channels. For example cjs14 channel includes docx. But unfortunately it is only for python2 :( conda install -c cjs14 python-docx UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict: - python 3.6* - python-docx -> python 2.7* -> openssl 1.0.1* PL. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The anaconda that I know about is the RedHat installer program (which was originally written in Python, BTW), but I'm guessing that's not what you're asking about. > My naive question is: When I go to pypi for example, am I to download > packages into python or Mint? I don't understand the question: python is a language, Mint is a Linux OS distro. If you can't use your distro's package manager to install the package you're looking for (see below), then here is how you install a package from pypi: https://packaging.python.org/installing/#installing-from-pypi > It seems that I have skipped a step where one creates a folder for > these files. I don't know why you would have to create a folder. If you're running Mint Linux, then your first step is to look to see if the Mint repositories contain the package you want. http://packages.linuxmint.com/ http://packages.linuxmint.com/list.php?release=Serena If Linux Mint doesn't provide the package you want, the the above link shows how to install packages from from pypi. If what you want isn't on pypi, then Google is your friend: https://www.google.com/search?q=linux+mint+anaconda https://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/install-linux https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siov5S0Qzdc Is that the anaconda you're talking about?

import docx error
Hi, I am very new to Python, have only done simple things >>>print("hello world") type things. I've really been looking forward to using Python. I bought Two books, downloaded Python 3.6.1 (32 & 64) and each time I try this: >>> import docx I get errors. Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1 in ModuleNotFoundError: No module named docx I read a thread somewhere saying it wasn't needed to do import docx anymore but if I try doc = docx.document, I again get an error. I'm using Window 7 (but it also happens on 10). I've searched for online help and seen nothing that I can follow, references to PIP are over my head. It's very frustrating. Can somebody help? Really appreciate it. Thanks -John -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
