Hi Everyone,
I would like to create a two-dimensional array but am confused as to
how to go about it.
I've read about Numeric Python and Numpy. Are they one and the same?
Also, how do I install them? I am working on a Windows machine.
I've been getting the following error messages:
>>> import Numeric
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>
import Numeric
ImportError: No module named Numeric
>>> from Numeric import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#4>", line 1, in <module>
from Numeric import *
ImportError: No module named Numeric
I then downloaded and installed release 1.1.1 of the Numpy package
from this site:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1369&package_id=175103
After restarting the shell, I still get the same errors above (though
I do have this directory now: C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\numpy).
Anyone know how to correctly install and use this package?
Thanks in advance.
Samir
