    Do you wish to update your shell profile to automatically initialize conda?
    This will activate conda on startup and change the command prompt when activated.
    If you'd prefer that conda's base environment not be activated on startup,
      run the following command when conda is activated:
 
    conda config --set auto_activate_base false
 
    You can undo this by running `conda init --reverse $SHELL`? [yes|no]
    [no] >>> no
 
    You have chosen to not have conda modify your shell scripts at all.
    To activate conda's base environment in your current shell session:
 
    eval "$(/home/aadmin/miniconda3/bin/conda shell.YOUR_SHELL_NAME hook)"
 
    To install conda's shell functions for easier access, first activate, then:
 
    conda init
 
    Thank you for installing Miniconda3!
