 Use this command to get a full list:
     module avail chpc/python
+Note that the modules including anaconda are more recent and thus recommended over the plain Python modules, i.e., use one of:
+  chpc/python/anaconda/3-2019.10
+  chpc/python/anaconda/3-2020.02
+  chpc/python/anaconda/3-2020.11
+  chpc/python/anaconda/3-2021.05
+  chpc/python/anaconda/3-2021.11
+>  To check the version of Python provided by each, load the module (after purging any already loaded modules) and then run ''python --version''.  For example (screen capture --- don't type in the ''login1:~$'', that's the shell prompt):
+  login1:~$ module purge
+  login1:~$ module load chpc/python/anaconda/3-2019.10
+  login1:~$ python3 --version
+  Python 3.7.4
+  login1:~$ module purge
+  login1:~$ module load chpc/python/anaconda/3-2021.11
+  login1:~$ python3 --version
+  Python 3.9.7
+  login1:~$
 All python modules should have mpi4py, numpy and scipy installed; however if matplotlib is required, please use anaconda (which also has the biggest range of 3rd-party python modules). The module ''chpc/python/3.5.2_gcc-6.2.0'' also has a working matplotlib installation.
