Lets fix it like this:
1. Move it out of `/root/` with:
```
sudo mv /root/anaconda3 /home/$USER
```
2. Add this to `/home/ahmed/.bashrc`**please don't use 'sudo' here** simple do `nano /home/$USER/.bashrc`:
```
# Anaconda3
export PATH="/home/ahmed/anaconda2/bin:$PATH"
```
3. Source the `.bashrc` file with:
```
source /home/ahmed/.bashrc
```
4. Now delete the entry \[`export PATH="/root/anaconda3/bin"`\] in `/root/.bashrc` with `nano editor` or with the editor you used before
5. Open new terminal and check

But... the documentation says *not* to put it in your home directory (like it warns you not to do that). -- And like... if the supported path doesn't even work right then going down the explicitly unsupported path seems even worse...

Make sure that you are installing the Anaconda binary that is compatible with your kernel.
I was in the same situation. Turned out I have an x64\_86 CPU and was trying to install a 64 bit Power 8 installer. You can find out the same for your CPU by using the following command. It gives you a basic information about a computer's software and hardware.
```
$ uname -a
```
<https://www.anaconda.com/download/#linux>
The page in the link above, displays 2 different types of 64-Bit installers.
- 64-Bit (x86) installer and
- 64-Bit (Power 8) installer

| Readable Markdown | After installing Anaconda correctly. I wanted after finishing the installation to do the following. I forget to do it while installing anaconda:
```
export PATH="/root/anaconda3/bin"
conda --version
conda command not found
```
then I opened
```
gedit /root/.bashrc
```
I added at the end of file
```
export PATH="/root/anaconda3/bin"
```
but I still get
```
conda --version
conda command not found
```
EDIT1: gedit /root/.bashrc
```
