Installing numba package on MS Azure

Imran Bashir 5

Hi

I am running a jupyter notebook on MS Azure. I want to install the python numba package. It usually done using conda on a linux machine. Can someone guide me on how to do that on MS Azure?

The issue pertains to myAZQ Quantum Workspace under Operations -> Notebooks.

I have written an algorithm to do simulation of physical system.

In my python code, I am importing numba package. See insert below.
The code errors out upon execution. See error below:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numba'

Any suggestion on how to import or install the numba package?

from numba import njit, types

Hi Imran Bashir •,

You can use the following command in a code cell in your notebook to install numba

%pip install <package_name>

After the installation is complete, you can verify if numba is successfully installed by importing it again in a new code cell:

from numba import njit, types

Thank You.

Thanks @Saideep Anchuri

I tried your suggestion but I am still getting an error. This might have to do with credentials or access to install packages. I tried running the command with sudo but I am then prompted to enter account password on the server that I don't know.
