Problems with installing scipy with pip on Windows?

Question

I have started working on python, and now, I want to solve real scientific problems for which SciPy is required. I have tried to install SciPy with:

pip install scipy-0.16.0-cp34-none-win_amd64.whl

and I got message that SciPy is installed successfully. However, when I want to import SciPy the error is:

raise ImportError("Numpy OpenBLAS flavour is needed for this scipy build.") ImportError: Numpy OpenBLAS flavour is needed for this scipy build.

I am using Windows OS, and I am using Eclipse+PyDev as an IDE. What makes this sort of problem? And how can I solve it?

I had also same issue, did you solve it by yourself ? – Hayra Nov 01 '16 at 16:05 — Hayra, Nov 01 '16 at 16:05

Yes! NumPy is installed. I was using it for a while. – user3616359 Mar 22 '16 at 09:15
What about that: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11443302/compiling-numpy-with-openblas-integration – frankenapps Mar 22 '16 at 09:19
It seems this is for linux? – user3616359 Mar 22 '16 at 09:21

Download and install the wheel for numpy with OpenBLAS from https://pypi.anaconda.org/carlkl/simple/numpy/

What is the version of numpy with OpenBLAS ? I don't think that this link refers to these versions. – Hayra Nov 01 '16 at 16:04
That link has up to numpy 1.10.0b1. I got scipy 0.16.0 working in Python 3.3 on Win-AMD-64 by using the numpy-1.10.0b1-cp33-none-win_amd64.whl. Try that and if you get errors maybe open a new question. – Jonathan Allan Nov 01 '16 at 16:28
