To install Anaconda on Ubuntu, start by visiting the official Anaconda website and downloading the latest version of the installer for Linux (64-bit). Once the download is complete, open your terminal and navigate to the folder where the installer is saved. You’ll need to run the installer script, which will walk you through a step-by-step installation process. During this, you’ll be asked to review and accept the license agreement, and then to choose an installation location — it’s usually fine to go with the default path. After installation, the script will ask if you’d like to initialize Anaconda; you should confirm this so that the system can recognize the conda command without extra setup. Once the process is finished, close and reopen your terminal or refresh your shell environment to apply the changes. You can then verify the installation by checking the Anaconda version or running a basic conda command. It’s also a good idea to update Anaconda once it’s installed to ensure you have the latest package versions and features. Anaconda makes managing Python environments and packages much easier, especially for data science and machine learning projects, and is a valuable tool on any development setup.
