From the past two days, I've been trying to install scipy
from the wheel file available from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#scipy in my windows laptop 64 bit built and running Python 2.7.3. I tried running pip install scipy
in the command window, it didn't work and the following error popped up in command prompt
I also tried typing
pip install scipy-version.whl
That didn't work too! and the same error popped up. I even updated my pip.
I read in some comments that pip doesn't work well for scipy installation. If so, what alternatives can you suggest? If not can you tell me the way to install using wheel scripts?

There are some issue while installing scipy using pip, please try using Anaconda python version which comes with all the libraries you can ever need instead of your default python.
Still if you want to use the default python refer here, as already answered here.
