Introduction to Python

Just skip read this intro :P.

Python is the most widespread programming language used around the world. Based on GitHub, Python was the second most popular programming language in the world in 2019. Let’s go to the main topic. In this article, I want to give you the simple installation python with Anaconda. Why Anaconda? I just really like this platform because you can do all your thing based on python language just in one click in the beautiful GUI on Anaconda Navigator. Okay, let’s go to what you should prepare.

In my opinion, python is the easiest programming language then another programming language (because i just only learn python language on college haha :V). But, in reality, python is surely easy programming language because its open source programming. You can ask what you wanna ask, and stackoverflow, medium, geek4geek, etc (should be) answer your question.

1. Download the installer at https://www.anaconda.com/distribution/

Scroll down, then select download anaconda distribution, make sure that you choose the Windows version to download. Next, choose 64-bit or 32-bit versions. I recommend to choose the 64-bit version for computer with 4Gb RAM or more.

Choose Python 3.7 version for better function of python

2. Run and Install the Program

Then, run the program and follow this image instruction

**Just skip reading if you haven’t a lot of time :D**

**Choose “Just Me” if you use multi-profile on your windows**

**Just choose next, for default destination installation folder**

**Check “Register Anaconda3 as my default Python 3.7**

**Take your time, and make dalgona coffee while waiting for the installation. :D**

The installation may take longer depends on your hardisk. On my computer, it takes about 10 minutes until finish. After installation, uncheck everything and just choose finish.

3. Open Anaconda Prompt

After installation, open Start->Anaconda3(64-bit)->Anaconda Prompt

4. Open Jupyter Notebook on a specific directory

Actually, you just can choose Jupyter notebook on Anaconda folder like the picture above and Jupyter Notebook will open in your default browser. But, it not cool. So, type jupyter notebook on Anconda Prompt is the coolest way.
