Requirement for building Python visual (Contradicting information)

Hello, 

 

I was going through the learning materials from Microsoft for the DA-100 Exam.

I came across the "Add R or Python visuals" where it basically says 'For R you need to download R on local machine, but for python, there is no prerequisit, so you can get started right away'.

 

But then I also found the "Run python scripts in Power BI" document from Microsoft, where it says 'insatll Python before you start'.

 

I am a bit confused with these two contradicting information. I had python installed before this so I am not sure but since there is a "python scripting" in Options in Power BI, I am guessing you need to install python first?

 

In that case does anyone know why the two documents are saying different things? Did something change?

 

Thank you in advance!
