Hi Rajn,
I found that trying to use pre-packaged versions of python gave me a lot of
trouble. You might be able to figure out, but I wasn't able to get
enthought or anaconda to work well. So I use the standard 2.7.3 version of
python already pre-installed. Then I run the following to get numpy, scipy,
and matplotlib working:
sudo apt-get build-dep python-numpy python-scipy
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install -U numpy
sudo pip install -U scipy
sudo apt-get install python-matplotlib
In julia:
Pkg.add("PyPlot")
Pkg.update()
Between PyCall and PyPlot you can do some very cool things.
I haven't used iPython. I'm a recent emacs convert :)
Good luck!
