Conda is "pip" for people who know _nothing_ about pip/operating-systems/IT. It is basically a way to have a working environment without understanding that maybe pandas and numpy and scikit are not Python built-in modules, and that maybe you'd need a working C/C++ (and even a Fortran compiler too) to install it.
It's great for that purpose, but - as far as I know - it has not much to do with general Python dependency management.
- downerending 6y agoConda does (in theory) handle python module dependencies well. In practice, like pip, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. Note that you can use 'pip' within a 'conda' environment as well, so you can sort of have it both ways.
