(base) Admin's-iMac:~ admin$ , what is this (base)? After conda install

I installed anaconda2 on my iMac. Then I use anaconda2 to install tensorflow.

Either by using

conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow

Or by using Anaconda Navigator, search the package tensorflow and then select to install.

In both cases, after I did the tensorflow installation. my command line terminal changed to

(base) Admin's-iMac:~ admin$ , (base) showed up now. What is this (base)?

In my .bash_profile, 

# added by Anaconda2 2018.12 installer
    # >>> conda init >>>
    # !! Contents within this block are managed by 'conda init' !!
    __conda_setup="$(CONDA_REPORT_ERRORS=false '/Users/admin/anaconda2/bin/conda' shell.bash hook 2> /dev/null)"
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
        \eval "$__conda_setup"
    else
        if [ -f "/Users/admin/anaconda2/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" ]; then
            . "/Users/admin/anaconda2/etc/profile.d/conda.sh"
            CONDA_CHANGEPS1=false conda activate base
        else
            \export PATH="/Users/admin/anaconda2/bin:$PATH"
        fi
    fi
    unset __conda_setup
    # <<< conda init <<<

I have these lines.

So it seems some of the conda setup conditions met, and 

CONDA_CHANGEPS1=false conda activate base

So my login terminal will "conda activate base", using conda virtualenv.

So now my terminal showed (base) each time I opened the terminal window. Does it mean some errors happened with my conda or conda packages installation?

To get rid of the (base), I need to reinstall anaconda2.

Thanks!

Pretty late but anyway - I got the same using miniconda on wsl, windows. You can turn it off by - $conda deactivate and the terminal comes back to normal.
