b) Open the terminal, go to the directory where the installer is downloaded and
type the following:

bash Anaconda3-2020.02-Linux-x86_64.sh

c) Accept the default location or select a user-writable install location such

NOTE: Install Anaconda as a user unless root privileges are required.

d) Follow the prompts on the installer screens, and if unsure about any setting,
simply accept the defaults, as they can all be changed later.

e) If you select the option to not add the Anaconda directory to your bash shell
PATH environment variable, you may later add this line to the “~/.bashrc” in your
home directory:

export PATH="/home/username/anaconda/bin:$PATH"
