Every release I am downloading Julia and trying to wrestle through some tutorials. Every time (0.4.0, 0.6.0, 1.0.0) I get stuck at some error, usually during the pre-compiling of some dependency.

For example, I have downloaded julia-1.0.0. I try to follow this tutorial here, linked in this post by someone: http://juliadb.org/latest/manual/tutorial.html

Then I do this and get an error:

julia> using JuliaDB [ Info: Precompiling JuliaDB [a93385a2-3734-596a-9a66-3cfbb77141e6] ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: start not defined Stacktrace:

Every time. Even the screenshot of Julia code that julialang.org used to have was not runnable per admission of core devs.

What am I doing wrong? How are you able to run large Julia programs successfully?

Edit:

Let's try tutorial at https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2017/10/comprehensive-t.... First command: Pkg.add("IJulia"): command fails to install dependency Conda.

Same for the tutorial at http://ucidatascienceinitiative.github.io/IntroToJulia/Html/...

Sigh. Give up
