Given how many other modules you are loading I'd suggest installing a
full anaconda distribution which has everything included as standard.

You say you downloaded them, but did you install them?

It suggests the install didn't work.  The simplest fix is probably
to just install a full anaconda. Failing that we'll need to know OS and
the install process you used.

Also, since Scipy etc is technically outside the scope of this list
(standard library only) you may get more responses on the SciPy
(or Anaconda/Miniconda) forums.
