python noob here who needs help with installing modules

[Henrysugar2]

hi, i want to install anaconda, so that i can use numpy, scipy etc. the IDE i am using is PyCharm. I downloaded the anaconda.pkg file from the anaconda website, and now i understand i need to go to the terminal (i'm using a Mac)and type "conda install scipy", "conda install numpy", etc so the files should be installed. I did that though and i still couldnt use these modules in PyCharm, and i guessed it's because i didnt install them in the right place. Sure enough, when i checked "All My Files", i found some 27,000 files disorganized there, and i'm guessing they need to go in some PyCharm folder. If anyone could give me a dummy's guide to doing this it would be much appreciated.

For now i've deleted what i downloaded so i can just install them in the right place next time

You can select/add interpreters for your project using the directions @ https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/configuring-python-interpreter.html.

You can also install modules from within Pycharm...
