Installation Instructions [Linux Install]

These instructions explain how to install Anaconda on a Linux system.

After downloading the Anaconda installer, run the following command from a terminal:

$ bash Anaconda-2.x.x-Linux-x86[_64].sh

After accepting the license terms, you will be asked to specify the install location (which defaults to ~/anaconda).

_{Note: You do NOT need root privileges to install Anaconda, if you select a user writable install location, such as ~/anaconda.* After the self extraction is finished, you should add the anaconda binary directory to your PATH environment variable.}

_{As all of Anaconda is contained in a single directory, uninstalling Anaconda is easy (you simply remove the entire install location directory).}

If you encounter any issues, please try disabling your antivirus software.
Linux/OS X Uninstall

$ rm -rf ~/anaconda
