I'm using a 64-bit machine with Spyder by Anaconda and want to upgrade numpy from 1.7.1 to 1.8.x. But when I use this command: 

conda update numpy

I get the following message:

enter image description here

In other words, the same old version 1.7.1. Why is this? I want the latest numpy.

I found the solution in this thread:

Installing Numpy on 64bit Windows 7 with Python 2.7.3

There was an answer saying:

But you need to modify your environment variable PATH, so that the anaconda folder is before the original Python folder.

I've actually got two anaconda systems on my machine a 32-bit path and the path to the 64-bit environment that I use, so I deleted the path to 32-bit anaconda and put the Python27 path after the 64-bit anaconda path, and now when I try to update numpy, it works, to 1.8.x!
