Estimated read time 1 min read

Sure, here are the steps to create a Python 3 environment using Conda:

  1. First, ensure that you have Conda installed. You can download and install Conda from the official Anaconda website: https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual
  2. Open a terminal or command prompt and create a new Python 3 environment by running the following command:
conda create --name env_name python=3

Here, env_name is the name you want to give to your environment.

  1. Activate the environment by running the following command:
conda activate env_name

This will activate the environment and you should see its name in your terminal prompt.

  1. Now you can install packages and run Python scripts within this environment, without affecting the global Python environment on your system.
  2. When you’re done using the environment, you can deactivate it by running the following command:
conda deactivate
  1. If you want to remove the environment, you can do so by running the following command:
conda remove --name env_name --all

This will remove the environment and all packages installed in it.

That’s it! You’ve successfully created a Python 3 environment using Conda.
