+Anaconda is a package manager, an environment manager, a Python/R data science
+distribution, and a collection of over 1,500+ open source packages. Anaconda is
+free and easy to install, and it offers free community support.
+
+Conda is an open source package management system and environment management
+system that runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. Conda quickly installs, runs and
+updates packages and their dependencies. Conda easily creates, saves, loads and
+switches between environments on your local computer. It was created for Python
+programs, but it can package and distribute software for any language.
+
+Conda as a package manager helps you find and install packages. If you need a
+package that requires a different version of Python, you do not need to switch
+to a different environment manager, because conda is also an environment
+manager. With just a few commands, you can set up a totally separate
+environment to run that different version of Python, while continuing to run
+your usual version of Python in your normal environment.
+
+This package provides the conda command (miniconda), as well as releases of the
+Anaconda distribution, built against several python versions.
