Hi,

To learn data science which software should be installed considering the system limitation is OS Windows 10 (Pro)version on 64 bit and 3 GB RAM.

I have installed Anaconda, Pycharm community (free for learners) and pycharm 2019.3.3

But when i downloaded from their authentic websites for pychrarm it told minimum 8 GB of total system RAM & 4 GB of free RAM

source <https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/installation-guide.html#> where as i just have 3 GB RAM so just wondering did i miss any thing while donloading

also for both versions of pycharm (community free open source) & pycharm 2019.3.3 (for professional developers)when i downloaded it from mentioned link and after i rebotted my sytem and from start menu when i opened it then it asked to configure it and i was not sure to point to which folder to configure it so how can i check it since i did not know corresponding configuration folders so i skipped it and then it opened screens like attached in screenshots so i need guidance whether it's correctly installed or not and how could i correct that configure folder error now?

Also for Anaconda
:-
Anaconda I downloaded from this link <https://www.anaconda.com/distribution/>

How could i start working my first project in anaconda and how could i verify whether i have correctly installed it?

Thanks

just missed attachments for screenshots(main screen and inside menus) for python community(free for opensource)

and for python professional.

any updates by data scientists and python experts please advise here.

Thanks

3Gb will set you up for a miserable experience. I would recommend one of the cloud based free services, such as Colab from Google, or IBM Developer Skills Network. Both have the libraries available and memory for most learning tasks (and both can bridge to more robust systems like Watson should the need arise).
