Python

You can trigger the Python environment, such as the Python Editor and Command Window, in the following ways:

1. Define a user profile: On the main toolbar, select the Python user profile, which sets all corresponding browsers to Python. You can also set Python to be your default language.
2. Open a new Python file: Select File > New > Python File. The new file sets the respective command window and editor for Python.
3. Open an existing Python file, which sets the respective command window and editor for Python.

Python 3.8

Use the OML function installpythonpackage<package_name> or use the command prompt:

1. Open the command window (cmd) as Administrator.
2. Type: cd C:\<Compose_installation_folder>\common\python\python<version>\win64
3. Type: python.exe-m pip install <package_name>

Yes, you can run OML and Python using the following functions:

No. All Altair products that support Python use the same Python binaries of a particular version, therefore using a different distribution affects not only Compose, but other Altair products too.

On top of the complete and Integrated Development Environment (IDE) provided in Compose, you can mix your Python scripts with OML and create a toolchain that has all-in-one features in a single environment instead of using separate applications, such as another Python IDE and Octave.
