# Why python?
---
class: center, middle
# Python is...
---
## …WIDESPREAD
* Large world-wide community ensures **fast development**
* Used in **scientific** and non-scientific institutes <br> (Google, NASA, ESRI, VMM,...)
* Python is a standard in **GIS** <br> (commercial and non-commercial tools)
* **Multiplatform** (linux, windows,…)
---
## …REPRODUCIBLE
.center[
instead of
> *what did you/I clicked a few months ago?’-style WYSISYG*
]
--
## …MULTI-FUNCTIONAL
* Research and development: the python *scientific ecosystem*
* Webdevelopment (Django, Flask)
* Daily use: great as ducttape/glue
* **Automation** of time-consuming returning tasks
--
## …OPEN SOURCE
* No license costs!
---
## ...SO WHAT? The Holy Grail ? No!
* Commercial packages give specific support and more direct help-functions (cfr. MATLAB)
* Commercial packages can be more client-friendly
* For hard number-crunching stuff, NOT the fastest solution
* R, Fortran, C++ etc are also ‘widespread’, so python is just a language amongst the others
* Risk of getting lost in the forest/flood of ‘useful packages’

# Conda
### Why using conda?
- Consistent package manager across Windows, Mac and Linux
- Many precompiled packages available
- Less problems with installation
--
### Why different environments?
- Manage the dependencies of a specific project/paper/group/...
- You can install different version of Python and other packages alongside on your computer
- Easily share environments with other
---
## Small overview of conda commands
Creating a new environment:
```
conda create -n my_env python=3.7 pandas
# or from environment file
conda env create -f environment.yml
```
Activating an environment:
```
conda activate my_env
```
Install a new package:
```
conda install matplotlib # if not working, try: pip install ...
```
List all installed packages: `conda list`
List all your environments: `conda info -e`
See the docs: http://conda.pydata.org/docs/using/index.html
---
class: center, middle
### Keep track of your python ecosystem <br>with an `environment.yml`
<br><br>
```
conda env export > environment.yml
```

## Interactive Development Environment (IDE)
* [**Spyder**](https://pythonhosted.org/spyder/) is shipped with Anaconda. The familiar environment for Matlab/Rstudio-users...
* [**PyCharm**](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/): Popular for web-development and Django applications, powerful when doing 'real' development (packages, libraries, software)
* [Eclipse + **pyDev plugin**](http://www.pydev.org/): If you like working in Eclipse, just add the python environment
* [**VS Code**](https://code.visualstudio.com/), [**Atom**](https://atom.io/), ...

### Reading advice
[Good Enough Practices in Scientific Computing](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1609.00037v1.pdf)
> "*However, while most scientists are careful to validate their laboratory and field equipment, most do not know how reliable their software is*"
