Installing SciPy on windows

Question

I have problems with installing SciPy on windows. I've already tried pip install (which worked for NumPy) but it didn't work out. Any idea how to solve this problem?

Have you gotten any errors when installing? We'll need a bit more info. — TheDetective, Aug 03 '17 at 13:19

I recommend installing Anaconda which is a binary distribution system, which means that you don't need to compile yourself. Overall I find this to be a far easier way to handle packages on windows.

Using Anaconda, you can install scipy via:

conda install scipy

Anaconda is clearly the best choice for unexperienced users in Python and Windows. – iFlo Aug 03 '17 at 13:25

A good way with those kind of packages (scipy, numpy, ...) on Windows is to download (unoficial) binaries from this website and install it from here.

Once download, you can install it using pip :

pip install scipy-package.whl
