Python - Python is an interpreted, high-level and general-purpose


programming language.Created by Guido van Rossum and first released in
1991, Python’s design philosophy emphasizes code readability with its
notable use of significant whitespace.
Its language constructs and object-oriented approach aim to help
programmers write clear, logical code for small and large-scale
projects.Python is dynamically typed and garbage-collected. It supports
multiple programming paradigms, including structured (particularly,
procedural), object-oriented, and functional programming.
Python is often described as a ”batteries included” language due to its
comprehensive standard library.Python was created in the late 1980s as a
successor to the ABC language.
Python 2.0, released in 2000, introduced features like list comprehensions
and a garbage collection system with reference counting.
Python 3.0, released in 2008, was a major revision of the language that is
not completely backward-compatible, and much Python 2 code does not
run unmodified on Python 3.
The Python 2 language was officially discontinued in 2020 (first planned for
2015), and ”Python 2.7.18 is the last Python 2.7 release and therefore the
last Python 2 release.”[30] No more security patches or other improvements
will be released for it. With Python 2’s end-of-life, only Python 3.6.x and
later are supported.
Python interpreters are available for many operating systems. A global
community of programmers develops and maintains CPython, a free and
open-source reference implementation. A non-profit organization, the
Python Software Foundation, manages and directs resources for Python
and CPython development.
Python was conceived in the late 1980s by Guido van Rossum at Centrum
Wiskunde Informatica (CWI) in the Netherlands as a successor to the ABC
language (itself inspired by SETL), capable of exception handling and
interfacing with the Amoeba operating system. Its implementation began
in December 1989.
Van Rossum shouldered sole responsibility for the project, as the lead
developer, until 12 July 2018, when he announced his ”permanent
vacation” from his responsibilities as Python’s Benevolent Dictator For
Life, a title the Python community bestowed upon him to reflect his
long-term commitment as the project’s chief decision-maker.
He now shares his leadership as a member of a five-person steering council.
In January 2019, active Python core developers elected Brett Cannon, Nick
Coghlan, Barry Warsaw, Carol Willing and Van Rossum to a five-member
”Steering Council” to lead the project.
Anaconda - Anaconda is a free and open-source distribution of the Python
and R programming languages for scientific computing (data science,
machine learning applications, large-scale data processing, predictive
analytics, etc.), that aims to simplify package management and
deployment.The distribution includes data-science packages suitable for
Windows, Linux, and macOS. It is developed and maintained by Anaconda,
Inc., which was founded by Peter Wang and Travis Oliphant in 2012.As an
Anaconda, Inc. product, it is also known as Anaconda Distribution or
Anaconda Individual Edition, while other products from the company are
Anaconda Team Edition and Anaconda Enterprise Edition, both of which
are not free.
Package versions in Anaconda are managed by the package management
system conda. This package manager was spun out as a separate
open-source package as it ended up being useful on its own and for other
things than Python. There is also a small, bootstrap version of Anaconda
called Miniconda, which includes only conda, Python, the packages they
depend on, and a small number of other packages. Anaconda distribution
comes with over 250 packages automatically installed, and over 7,500
additional open-source packages can be installed from PyPI as well as the
conda package and virtual environment manager. It also includes a GUI,
Anaconda Navigator, as a graphical alternative to the command line
interface (CLI).
The big difference between conda and the pip package manager is in how
package dependencies are managed, which is a significant challenge for
Python data science and the reason conda exists. When pip installs a
package, it automatically installs any dependent Python packages without
checking if these conflict with previously installed packages[citation
needed]. It will install a package and any of its dependencies regardless of
the state of the existing installation[citation needed]. Because of this, a user
with a working installation of, for example, Google Tensorflow, can find
that it stops working having used pip to install a different package that
requires a different version of the dependent numpy library than the one
used by Tensorflow. In some cases, the package may appear to work but
produce different results in detail.
In contrast, conda analyses the current environment including everything
currently installed, and, together with any version limitations specified (e.g
the user may wish to have Tensorflow version 2,0 or higher), works out how
to install a compatible set of dependencies, and shows a warning if this
cannot be done.Open source packages can be individually installed from the
Anaconda repository, Anaconda Cloud (anaconda.org), or the user’s own
private repository or mirror,using the conda install command. Anaconda,
Inc. compiles and builds the packages available in the Anaconda repository
itself, and provides binaries for Windows 32/64 bit, Linux 64 bit and
MacOS 64-bit. Anything available on PyPI may be installed into a conda
environment using pip, and conda will keep track of what it has installed
itself and what pip has installed.Custom packages can be made using the
conda build command, and can be shared with others by uploading them to
Anaconda Cloud, PyPI or other repositories.The default installation of
Anaconda2 includes Python 2.7 and Anaconda3 includes Python 3.7.
However, it is possible to create new environments that include any version
of Python packaged with conda.
Spyder - Spyder is an open-source cross-platform IDE. The Python Spyder
IDE is written completely in Python. It is designed by scientists and is
exclusively for scientists, data analysts, and engineers. It is also known as
the Scientific Python Development IDE and has a huge set of remarkable
features which are discussed below.

FEATURES -
1.Supports all the IPython magic commands.
2.It provides real-time code introspection (The ability to examine what
functions, keywords, and classes are, what they are doing and what
information they contain)
3.Availability of breakpoints (debugging and conditional breakpoints)
Interactive execution which allows you to run line, file, cell, etc.
4.Navigation through cells, functions, blocks, etc can be achieved through
the Outline Explorer.
5.Inline display for graphics produced using Matplotlib
6.Also provides features such as help, file explorer, find files, etc
7.Can clear variables automatically ( or enter debugging )
8.Run configurations for working directory selections, command-line
options, current/ dedicated/ external console, etc.
