Anaconda is open-source software that makes it easy to manage Python libraries. It comes with a mini-application called Conda, which allows you to add, update, and delete Python libraries with ease.

Installing Anaconda
Double-click the Anaconda executable file to start the installation process. The installation process may take up to 10 minutes to complete.

Verifying Installation
Open the Command Prompt and type "conda --version" to verify the installation. If you see a version number, you're good to go!

Updating Conda and Pandas
Use the Command Prompt to update Conda and Pandas:
Update Conda: Type "conda update conda" and press enter.
