SciPy ImportError

Question

I have python 3.5, windows 7 64bit.

Installed these wheels whit pip (succesfully? it said so) pip is updated

numpy‑1.11.2+mkl‑cp35‑cp35m‑win_amd64.whl scipy‑0.18.1‑cp35‑cp35m‑win_amd64.whl

To check if installed correctly:

https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/tutorial/special.html

I used this code.

First line, I get ImportError

"from scipy import special"

What to do?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

First of all, uninstall all python related previous installations. Then install anaconda from here anaconda's latest version (prefer 32 bit). check "add to path" option in the installation box. Run command prompt as admin and install scipy by conda install scipy Now run python interpreter from this path "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\python.exe" and try importing scipy.

Hope this helps
