Anaconda is an open source [9] [10] data science and artificial intelligence distribution platform for Python and R programming languages. Developed by Anaconda, Inc., [11] an American company [1] founded in 2012, [11] the platform is used to develop and manage data science and AI projects. [9] In 2024, Anaconda Inc. has about 300 employees [12 ...
It was originally developed to solve package management challenges faced by Python data scientists, and today is a popular package manager for Python and R. [4] [5] At first, Anaconda Python distribution was developed by Anaconda Inc.; later, it was spun out as a separate package, [6] released under the BSD license.
pip (also known by Python 3's alias pip3) is a package-management system written in Python and is used to install and manage software packages. [4] The Python Software Foundation recommends using pip for installing Python applications and its dependencies during deployment. [5]
Python 2.6 was released to coincide with Python 3.0, and included some features from that release, as well as a "warnings" mode that highlighted the use of features that were removed in Python 3.0. [ 28 ] [ 10 ] Similarly, Python 2.7 coincided with and included features from Python 3.1, [ 29 ] which was released on June 26, 2009.
Python 3.0, released in 2008, was a major revision not completely backward-compatible with earlier versions. Python 2.7.18, released in 2020, was the last release of Python 2. [36] Python consistently ranks as one of the most popular programming languages, and has gained widespread use in the machine learning community. [37] [38] [39] [40]
An early package manager was SMIT (and its backend installp) from IBM AIX. SMIT was introduced with AIX 3.0 in 1989. [citation needed]Early package managers, from around 1994, had no automatic dependency resolution [3] but could already drastically simplify the process of adding and removing software from a running system.
brew install python no longer installs a python binary without manual PATH additions and instead installs a python2 binary. This avoids overriding the system python binary by default when installing Python as a dependency. It also paves the way to eventually have python be Python 3.x. 1.2.0 2017-05-01
Python Imaging Library is a free and open-source additional library for the Python programming language that adds support for opening, manipulating, and saving many different image file formats. It is available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. The latest version of PIL is 1.1.7, was released in September 2009 and supports Python 1.5.2–2.7. [3]
