Hello, I am new to python and hence pardon me if the questions are too elementary. I have EPD 6.3.1 installed on my windows-32 bit machine.
I am trying to install PySparse (on my windows 32-bit) and I downloaded the pysparse-1.1_rc1.win32-py2.6.exe<http://sourceforge.net/projects/pysparse/files/pysparse/1.1/pysparse-1.1_rc1.win32-py2.6.exe/download>file and ran it. I don't understand how the exe file works. How is this different from running the setup.py file that comes with unzipping the tar.gz files in the sourceforge.net website. I tried 'import pysparse' at the interpreter command line and it worked fine. Does that mean that I am good to go and can start using Pysparse. If not, how do I test pysparse to make sure that everything is alright. When I download the pysparse-1.1.1.tar.gz file and unzip it I see a ton of folders that don't get generated when I run the executable. The instructions for installation appear complex too. Can someone throw some light on it. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ram Balachandran (Industry Python User)
