Can't find correct numpy

Question

Level:noob

I took a MIT OCW course that requires an unofficial numpy for python 2.6.x 64 bit for windows platform. I googled for 2 hrs! But can't find or just don't recognize it! Can anyone sort it out? Thanks!

Answer 1

I am taking the same courses and you can't really have the full grasp of the content without installing all the software used and go through the labs. I had the same problem with numPy not working on 64bit computer and the link provided in the course was no longer providing the desired package...

Solution:

Just install the 32bit version of all the software (link provided below) which works even on a 64bits computer.

I hope that this will help anyone struggling with the same issue

Answer 2

There is no unofficial 2.6 + 64-bit NumPy because NumPy works on this combination.

The closest thing is a 2.7 64-bit binary:

This is the site that you reference in your question and comments, and the lowest Python version there is 2.7.
