The big picture:
I am trying to let rPython package run python scripts that have packages such as numpy, scipy, and scikit-learn.
Now, if that is an impossible task, please let me know right away, because I have spent over 10 hours on this problem (finally switched to a Mac so rPython is installable and runs the most basic python script). But I am new to iOS.
The Question:
After switching to a Mac, I installed rPython and the latest R, RStudio and Anaconda 2. It turned out that Mac has another version of python installed on it.
I tried the following script to change the directory to the python from Anaconda 2:
library(rPython)
Sys.setenv(PATH = paste("/Usr/local/bin", Sys.getenv("PATH"), sep=":"))
But it still is showing the older version of python.
I also checked the version and path of the Anaconda 2 python with which python in the terminal and got the following output:
Last login: Fri Mar 10 11:23:19 on console
Yangs-MacBook-Pro:~ yanghuang$ which python
/Users/yanghuang/anaconda/bin/python
Yangs-MacBook-Pro:~ yanghuang$ python

Any help is appreciated!
If I don't misunderstand your meaning you should use this script:
library(rPython)
Sys.setenv(PATH = paste("/Users/yanghuang/anaconda/bin/python", Sys.getenv("PATH"), sep=":"))
Also you can run this command in Rstudio:
> Sys.setenv(PATH = paste("/Users/yanghuang/anaconda/bin/python", Sys.getenv("PATH"),sep=":"))
> system("python --version")
Python 2.7.13
Another way:
sudo find /usr -name "*Rprofile*" -print
Find the Rprofile file and add this line then restart R:
.Internal(Sys.setenv("PATH", paste("/Users/yanghuang/anaconda/bin/python", Sys.getenv("PATH"), sep=":")))
