Using Matlab with Ubuntu, Anaconda and Python

I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I would like to use Matlab with a specific Anaconda environment. I found out that I have to use the functions pyversion or pyenv to set the path to the python executable file. Which file exactly do I have to link? (~/anaconda3/env/py377/bin/???)

[Brenda Zhou]

Currently, MATLAB isn't supported for Anaconda environment.

Anaconda environment works fine with MATLAB. I tried on mac, and there does not seem to be any issue.

To python executable

pyenv('Version', '~/anaconda3/envs/p37/bin/python')

[Sebastian Malert]

It works with pyenv. But not with pyversion for Matlab versions until 2019a. I get the error message:

Error using pyversion

Path argument does not specify a valid executable.

I used the same path like with pyenv. Any ideas?

[Ameer Hamza]

Are you typing

pyversion('Version', '~/anaconda3/envs/p37/bin/python')

The correct is

pyversion('~/anaconda3/envs/p37/bin/python')

I didn't get any error on running this.
