IPython 4 is out! And I'm keen to try it. But I am running iPython under conda.
Before conda adds version 4 to its repository, is there a safe way to install IPython 4 manually?
I tried:
pip install --upgrade jupyter
and it corrupted my installation. Any ideas?
pip is the default package manager that ships with python. Conda is also a package manager, but it is third party. Conda was made especially for data science libraries. Libraries installed with conda usually give much better performance than pip.
The general recommendation is that you use the Anaconda distribution to install both Python and the Jupyter Notebook. Jupyter Notebook in Anaconda comes pre-installed, meaning that you do not have to install it explicitly.
For me, similar to what Thomas mentioned in his comments, the following worked
conda update conda
conda uninstall ipython
conda install jupyter
The first two steps may not be necessary, but better save than sorry.
