python - quick start

install using anaconda. - this will install NumPy SciPy and many other packages. It takes care of conflict management between packages, and environments.

They claim to be better than pip

I choose the individual package

this will install python 3.7.6 

check the version by "python --version"

after install, verify your installations:

Anaconda Navigator, or Anaconda Prompt

type: conda list

What's new in AstroPy 4.0

here comes the tricky part:

install opencv 3.4.12

these doesn't work for me:

conda install -c conda-forge opencv 

conda install -c menpo opencv
