Installing Anaconda and OpenCV

“

- [Instructor] For this course, you'll need a Python3 setting with NumPy, Math.lib, Jupyter notebooks, and OpenCV. If you already have a Python3 setting and you know how to install all the necessary packages, please do so. If not the easiest option I recommend is to install the Anaconda distribution which comes with everything we'll need, except for OpenCV. Just go to Anaconda.com and download the installer for your system. In this course, you'll see all examples running on Windows 10, but you shouldn't expect big differences on a Mac or Linux computer. Once you've downloaded the installer, run it and proceed with the installation wizard, the default options are okay. After installing Anaconda, it's time to install OpenCV, which is very easy. Just run the Anaconda prompt and type in the command line, pip install opencv-python. That's it, your system is ready to go.
