Dear community, I have a question regarding the installation process of the Biopython toolbox ( http://biopython.org/DIST/docs/install/Installation.html#htoc14 ): I want to make sure that Numerical Python is correctly installed under Windows XP which it is not in my case:
from Numeric import *
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module> from Numeric import * ImportError: No module named Numeric But if I am doing:
from numpy import *
it works. This is not too surprised as it gets installed under numpy in the folder: C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages But the problem is that if I am making various library calls to Biopython I get an error, e.g. for handling PDB-stuff: File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\Bio\PDB\PDBParser.py", line 9, in <module> from Numeric import array, Float0 ImportError: No module named Numeric For help I would be very grateful. Thanks. Yours, Orlando

BioPython still requires Numeric, the predecessor to numpy. Here is a page describing the history of these packages: http://www.scipy.org/History_of_SciPy You can download Numeric from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1369&package_id=1351 -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
