How To Install python3-cluster on Kali Linux

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-cluster on Kali Linux. python3-cluster is allows grouping a list of arbitrary objects into related groups (clusters)

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-cluster on Kali Linux.

What is python3-cluster

python3-cluster is:

python-cluster is a “simple” package that allows users to create several groups (clusters) of objects from a list. It’s meant to be flexible and able to cluster any object. To ensure this kind of flexibility, you need not only to supply the list of objects, but also a function that calculates the similarity between two of those objects. For simple datatypes, like integers, this can be as simple as a subtraction, but more complex calculations are possible. Right now, it is possible to generate the clusters using a hierarchical clustering and the popular K-Means algorithm. For the hierarchical algorithm there are different “linkage” (single, complete, average and uclus) methods available.

This is the Python 3 compatible package.

There are three methods to install python3-cluster on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.

Install python3-cluster Using apt-get

Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.

sudo apt-get update

After updating apt database, We can install python3-cluster using apt-get by running the following command:

sudo apt-get -y install python3-cluster

Install python3-cluster Using apt

Update apt database with apt using the following command.

sudo apt update

After updating apt database, We can install python3-cluster using apt by running the following command:

sudo apt -y install python3-cluster

Install python3-cluster Using aptitude

If you want to follow this method, you might need to install aptitude on Kali Linux first since aptitude is usually not installed by default on Kali Linux. Update apt database with aptitude using the following command.

sudo aptitude update

After updating apt database, We can install python3-cluster using aptitude by running the following command:

sudo aptitude -y install python3-cluster

How To Uninstall python3-cluster on Kali Linux

To uninstall only the python3-cluster package we can use the following command:

sudo apt-get remove python3-cluster

Uninstall python3-cluster And Its Dependencies

To uninstall python3-cluster and its dependencies that are no longer needed by Kali Linux, we can use the command below:

Remove python3-cluster Configurations and Data

To remove python3-cluster configuration and data from Kali Linux we can use the following command:

sudo apt-get -y purge python3-cluster

Remove python3-cluster configuration, data, and all of its dependencies

We can use the following command to remove python3-cluster configurations, data and all of its dependencies, we can use the following command:

sudo apt-get -y autoremove --purge python3-cluster

Dependencies

python3-cluster have the following dependencies:
