Haha, well you’d be right in guessing that’s what I’m talking about! And I have only used it once, so in all honesty that’s my fault for not being all that familiar with it. I run Jupyter through shell script, and I don’t use Windows so I’ve never used the Anaconda prompt, but I imagine it certainly is a life saver for people on the NT kernel.

Not that Conda and the navigator are the same, but one inherits the other, and most people I know use the navigator, so generally that’s what I’ll say. I’ll try to work more on being a little more specific so-as not to cause confusion in that regard!

In my mind, this is a similar situation to GNU+Linux vs. Just saying Linux, as Linux itself isn’t really a product of the GNU software foundation, but the kernel isn’t really a full operating system without GNU grub, Xorg, etc. Although Conda certainly is more standalone than that, from my experience typically the two are used in tandom and not individually from one another.

Also, thank you for the link!
