Only python and numpy

Hello,

I wish to use Intel's python distribution for work. But I wanted to remove all unnecessary applications (packages). Is there any any python distribution (along with numpy) available ? Because numpy is enough for my application.

Thanks.

Hi Kapil,

I would suggest creating a conda environment with just Intel's python and numpy.  You will need Miniconda installed to manage environments. Then you can create a minimal environment as follows:

conda create -n ip -c intel numpy
source activate ip

This creates an environment named "ip" with Intel's numpy and its dependencies, then activates that environment, making it ready for use.

You can read more about using conda environments with Intel's Python distribution here.
