title: Upgrading from Python 2 to Python 3 using Anaconda
body: <p>Last year or so, I have installed Python using Anaconda without reading too much about it. Now, more and more I need newer versions of some libraries like Matplotlib, therefore I wanted to upgrade my Python. Before moving further, I would like to ask what is the best way to move forward for this process? My current setup is below:</p>
  <pre><code>Anaconda 2019.10 version
  conda version : 4.8.3
  conda-build version : 3.18.9
  python version : 2.7.16.final.0
  platform : win-64 / Windows 10
  </code></pre>
  <p>Official website of Anaconda suggests getting the newest version, but they are not specific, i.e. newest version of Anaconda or conda? Shall I do this from the command line or download the installer? Best way seems to be creating a new environment as well...</p>
  <p>Many thanks!</p>
