Teach how to update conda before installing any packages #21

Closed EdwinB12 closed 1 year ago

EdwinB12 commented 1 year ago

To ensure the demonstrator and all users have the same packages available, the entire class should update conda together: conda update conda

ns-rse commented 1 year ago

According to the documentation by default Conda automatically updates itself... "conda updates itself any time a user updates or installs a package in the root environment." . Would have to make the distinction of running conda update conda under base and any other created and activated environment.

Conda automatically updates (see above comment) so don't feel the need to explicitly call this out.
