I still want to do more list comprehension exercises. Hopefully I can find some that are more advanced. Google is my friend, hopefully.
I want to figure out how to get VS Code to auto-format my Python code.

I want to continue list comprehension exercises. My goal is to learn enough about list comprehension to efficiently finish the coding for day 2.
I also got interested yesterday in someone’s GitHub.io biography which made me want to learn how to do that.

Are you a Python user interested in installing Anaconda on Linux? I’ve chosen to install Anaconda as my base Python installation because it integrates the Jupyter environment so nicely.
The first step is to download the installer from https://www.anaconda.com/distribution/#linux. I chose to install the Python 3 version as I have no need to work on Python 2 projects.
Once the installer is downloaded, open a terminal and run the following command:
bash ~/Downloads/Anaconda3-2019.03-Linux-x86_64.sh
…replacing the filename with the specific filename you download.
You will be prompted to agree to the license. Note that you can hit <space> to fast forward through the license.
You will also be prompted for the installation location. Unless you have a need to install it somewhere specific, just accept the default location.
When you are prompted with…
Do you wish the installer to initialize Anaconda3 by running conda init?
…answer “yes”.
Once the installation is complete you may notice that nothing was installed in your start menu. To run the GUI, simply type…
anaconda-navigator
…in a terminal window. Note that the terminal will not be usable while the Navigator is open.
Please consider leaving me a comment if you found this guide useful or if there are any mistakes. Thanks!
