I want to deinstall and clean up after a partial Anaconda install

I tried to install a 64bit Anaconda on 32bit Ubuntu(thought I had 64bit) and it stopped in error,so before installing the correct version should I get rid of what is already installed to avoid conflict and keep memory clear, and if so how would I go about it? I am a big time Linux newbie by the way. Thanks for any tips.

Yes you need to remove the old install, check in two places:

1. In your home directory for the anaconda folder, delete that
2. Look in the /home/$USER/.bashrc for the anaconda export line and delete that.
3. If in step 2 that line is absent then go ahead with the new install.

Now your good to go with the new install.
