Python for Data Science

From Sinfronteras


Anaconda

Anaconda is a free and open source distribution of the Python and R programming languages for data science and machine learning related applications.

En otras palabras, Anaconda puede ser visto como un paquete (a distribution) que incluye no solo Python (or R) but many libraries that are used in Data Science, as well as its own virtual environment system. It's an "all-in-one" install that is extremely popular in data science and Machine Learning.


Anaconda comes with a few IDE:

  • Jupyter Lab
  • Jupyter Notebook
  • Spyder
  • Qtconsole
  • and others



Jupyter

Jupyter comes with Anaconda. It is a development environment (IDE) where we can write codes; but it also allows us to display images, and write down markdown notes.
