How to create new environment using conda

Question

Hi Guys,

I installed Anaconda in my system. Every time I try to install any module it uses base environment. How can I create my own environment?

Hi@akhtar,

Environment means you are creating your own lab for your project like that. To create an environment, use the below given command.

$ conda env list
$ conda create --name tensor
WARNING: A space was detected in your requested environment path
'C:\Users\anaconda3\envs\tensor'
Spaces in paths can sometimes be problematic.

  current version: 4.8.2
  latest version: 4.8.3
Please update conda by running
    $ conda update -n base -c defaults conda
## Package Plan ##
  environment location: C:\Users\anaconda3\envs\tensor
