How to set up the Anaconda interpreter in PyCharm?
To set up the Anaconda interpreter, please follow these steps:
- In the opened PyCharm project, click on the “File” option in the menu bar.
- Choose the “Settings” option to open the settings window for the project.
- Expand the “Project” option in the left sidebar of the settings window, then select “Project Interpreter”.
- In the interpreter list on the right side, click on the gear icon in the top right corner and select the “Add” option.
- In the pop-up window, choose “Conda Environment”, and then click on “Existing environment”.
- Choose the “conda.exe” file located in the Anaconda installation directory in the “Conda Executable” field. On a Windows system, the default installation path is typically: C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe.
- Ensure that the “Environment Name” field displays the environment name that you want to use.
- Click the “OK” button.
- Click on the “Apply” button in the bottom right corner of the settings window to save and apply the changes.
After completing the above steps, your PyCharm project will use the Anaconda interpreter you configured. You can use libraries and tools from the Anaconda environment anywhere in the project.
