Install additional Python packages to a virtual environment.

To install additional packages only to your virtual environment, enter the following command where yourenvname is the name of your environemnt, and [package] is the name of the package you wish to install. Failure to specify “-n yourenvname” will install the package to the root Python installation.

• conda install -n yourenvname [package]

• source deactivate

Delete a no longer needed virtual environment

To delete a conda environment, enter the following, where yourenvname is the name of the environment you wish to delete.

conda remove -n yourenvname -all
