I want to run a python program using the anaconda python installation. but i dont want to change the path as there are other users using root python installation. In summary i want to run this program as root user with anaconda but without changing the default python installation path for root user.
whichexport PYTHONPATH=/home/ubuntu/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/:$PYTHONPATH, then start the root Python script as usual ; should work. Although I find it weird
