[conda] Installing Time, Calendar, and SYS packages

[John Marthe - OIT]

Hi,

I am installing Anaconda for one of my users who will be going to training
for Python.

The people who are doing the training will not assist us in how to install
or prep for this training.

They have given us some requirements of which most I have been able to do,
but I cannot find anything in regards to 3 requirements.

We are running on a Windows 10 system, using Python 2.7 from Anaconda, and
have installed most of the needed packages.

But these 3 packages that the want us to install I have not found anything
online with running Windows, only Linux.

These 3 packages are Time, Calendar, and SYS. I ran across only one
suggestion and that is that this person believes that these already exist
with the Windows install. I am even having issues trying to find a way to
test to see if I have them.

Can anyone tell me if I need to something to install them or if they should
already be there?

Thank you,
John

Hi John,

These sound like modules from the standard library that are included in
python:

https://docs.python.org/2/library/time.html
https://docs.python.org/2/library/calendar.html
https://docs.python.org/2/library/sys.html

If you just start the python interpreter form the command prompt and type
“import sys” or “import calendar”, they should then be accessible.

My guess is that you’ll be fine, but if there are detailed docs from the
training that you could share or if you could just confirm with the
organizers whether all requirements are available in the standard library,
then I could help further or you’d know definitively.

Best wishes,
Josh

Hi Joshua,

The python interpreter is foreign to me. I am requested to make sure that
the packages are there, but I have no knowledge of Python.
I have the option to open the Anaconda Prompt and that seems to be the only
workspace that is available for me to do any work.

When I try to import any of them, 'import' is not a recognizable command.

Thank you,

I haven’t used it, but I think the “Anaconda Prompt” just opens a
terminal/command prompt with the environment variables correctly configured
to access python and conda and other tools that come with the anaconda
distribution. From the Anaconda Prompt, you should be able to start up the
python REPL by typing “python” and then once you are in the interpreter
then issue the “import calendar” command and then “exit()” to exit after
you’re done.

Hope that helps.

Josh

Thanks Joshua,

That seemed to work.

I did not get any errors, but no confirmation. It just went to the next
prompt line.

Thank you very much.

If I were you, I’d ask them for a test script to run to make sure the
system is set up appropriately.

Only they know what they need, and not all packages have a one-to one match
between the package name and the import line.
