Python version different with anaconda version

Question

I'm using python 3.9.0 and I want to install Anaconda, but the Anaconda not support python 3.9 yet. Is it okay if I'm still installing Anaconda?

Answer 1

Anaconda actually comes with its own bundled Python and its package libraries. It is still okay if you already have Python installed on your machine.

If Python 3.9 is not necessary for your application, you can use Anaconda bundled Python version ie Python 3.8 (latest version as now).

You can run your Python script using Anaconda virtual environment, so you will not mess up with existing Python installation.
