Preinstalled Packages

Overview

Each preinstalled Python version also includes Python packages supporting Data Lab and SPy. These packages can be imported in notebooks, modules, or scripts without having to install them. Use the commands below to list the preinstalled packages and their versions.

Python

Starting from Python 3.11, only a minimal subset of packages necessary for SPy and Data Lab will come pre-installed. Any additional packages must be installed manually. For further details, refer to Installing Python Modules and Packages.

Ensure that you are in the correct Python environment from the terminal using the pyversion command before proceeding. — Python Versions and Packages
