That will update all the anaconda distribution. In case I need to update the distribution, it is better to first of all update the package manager: You can use conda list to check installed version of any package within the distribution. This command will return only the package named “anaconda” (thanks to the $ and the end: yes it actually is a regular expression):Īs you can see I have the latest version (at time of writing, 5.1.0). This can be done using conda, Anaconda’s package manager: So if you have already installed Anaconda and you want to check which version you have, all you need to do is to check the meta-package version. First of all Anaconda is the name of the distribution that is also wholly contained in a meta-package (a package of packages) with the same name. Task that may not be so easy at the beginning, since Anaconda is a quite complex beast. So checking which version of Anaconda you have is quite a common task. It has so many packages already backed in, already compiled for Linux and Windows, that you can just forget the pain of having to compile a package yourself before using it.Īnaconda is also frequently updated, and I like to try to keep up with the updates to be sure I always have the best development experience possible. Anaconda is a great Python distribution, and it is my favorite both for Data Science and for plain simple web development.
