Hi,

I am confused about the preferred way of setting up Julia to be used with Jupyterlab when conda should also be used to manage python environements. I have set a link to the Julia binary and have installed IJulia. It looks like IJulia installed conda to install Jupyterlab and it all works fine. My question is whether I should install conda again to manager Python environments as this procedure has not set up conda correctly (i.e. I cannot use conda in the command line using bash on Ubuntu 19.10)?

Thanks for your help!

The Conda that IJulia setup is not for you to use,  
it is for julia packages to use to install their python dependencies.

Thus the answer is: yes, you shoukld install conda again if you want to use it on the command line in bash.
