</summary><content type="html">&lt;p&gt;If you are using Ubuntu 16.04 and don't want to install the Anaconda

Python distribution for trying out the book's

&lt;a class="reference external" href="http://doingmathwithpython.github.io/pages/programs.html"&gt;programs&lt;/a&gt; or

the &lt;a class="reference external" href="http://doingmathwithpython.github.io/trying-out-solutions.html"&gt;sample solutions&lt;/a&gt;, this

post is for you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ubuntu 16.04 already comes with Python 3 installed, so we only need to install

the following packages - matplotlib, matplotlib-venn, sympy and idle3.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Open a terminal and do the following:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;pre class="code literal-block"&gt;

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install python3-matplotlib python3-matplotlib-venn python3-sympy idle3

&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It's worth noting that this will install sympy 0.7.6 and matplotlib 1.5.1 which are

both sufficient for the book's programs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="section" id="starting-idle-editor"&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Starting IDLE editor&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can now start the IDLE editor by typing in &amp;quot;idle3&amp;quot; from the terminal and then it's ready

for your programs!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
