How to install numpy on windows using pip install?

Check installation of python 2.7 than install/reinstall pip which described here than open command line and write

pip install numpy

or

pip install scipy

if already installed try this

pip install -U numpy

Installing extension modules can be an issue with pip. This is why conda exists. conda is an open-source BSD-licensed cross-platform package manager. It can easily install NumPy.

Two options:

  • Install Anaconda here
  • Install Miniconda here and then go to a command-line and type conda install numpy (make sure your PATH includes the location conda was installed to).

Frustratingly the Numpy package published to PyPI won't install on most Windows computers https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/5479

Instead:

  1. Download the Numpy wheel for your Python version from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#numpy
  2. Install it from the command line pip install numpy-1.10.2+mkl-cp35-none-win_amd64.whl
