Availability
Not Recommended
While this Python module is available on our clusters, we highly recommend using the "python-libs" module instead, which has its own version of Python and includes all our installed libraries.
If you use module load python-libs after loading this module, it'll effectively override it.
| Cluster | Module/Version |
|---|---|
| BOSE | python/3.9.2 |
| BGSC | python/2.7.18 python/3.9.2 |
Note: You can simply use "module load python" to activate the most recently installed version of this software.
