python bash anaconda conda

I installed Anaconda and can run Python, so I assume that I installed it correctly. Following this introductory documentation, I am trying to install Python v3.3, so I am copying and pasting the following line into my console:

conda create -n py33 python=3.3 anaconda

However, that gives me an error:

-bash: conda: command not found

What do I need to do to run Conda?

I am working on a Linux system.

you might want to try this:

for anaconda 2 :

export PATH=~/anaconda2/bin:$PATH

for anaconda 3 :

export PATH=~/anaconda3/bin:$PATH

for anaconda 4 :

Use the Anaconda Prompt

and then 

conda --version

to confirm that it worked. The export PATH=~/anaconda3/bin:$PATH works but stops when you exit the terminal in order change that you have to run sudo nano ~/.bashrc and then copy the path into the file and save it after that you activate the changes using source .bashrc.

check with conda install anaconda-navigator if not installed follow the anaconda install instructions again
