Using multiple Python versions with Jupyter

I am using Anaconda installers and have Python 2 installed. I however, do want to use both Python 2 and 3 interchangeably in Jupyter Notebook. I read through the instructions provided in Installing the IPython kernel.

Does it mean that I do not need to install Python 3, just the kernel to start using both Python 2 and 3 in Jupyter?

Solution

  • Conda makes it a breeze. The full documentation should guide to manage both Python 3 and Python 2.
