Python Packagesยง

We provide a collection of installed Python packages for each minor version of Python, as a bundle module. This page lists the packages for the current recommended Python 3 bundle.

This can be loaded using:

module load python3/recommended

The version of Python 3 provided with this bundle is currently Python 3.9.10.

Note that some packages we do not provide this way, because they have complicated non-Python dependencies. These are usually provided using the normal application modules system. This includes TensorFlow.
