# Before opening Python you need to first load the Python version (in this case Python3) you want to use with:
#     module load python3/miniconda3
# and then load the module needed to read RPN files with Python with:
#     module load python3/python-rpn
#     module load python3/outils-divers
# and to get access to basic Python packages source:
#     source activate base_plus
