Re: [Numpy-discussion] Installing numpy

[Kevin Sheppard]

NumPy does not support Python 2.7. If you must use 2.7 you need to use NumPy 1.16.6.  Otherwise, you should probably be using Python 3.8 for new work.   Kevin     From: Lianyuan Zheng Sent: Monday, December 14, 2020 2:15 PM To: Discussion of Numerical Python Subject: Re: [Numpy-discussion] Installing numpy   Hello,   When I run the command "python numpy install", it shows the following error:   Traceback (most recent call last):   File "setup.py", line 27, in <module>     import versioneer   File "./numpy/versioneer.py", line 1739     file=sys.stderr)         ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax   Is this caused by the python version installed too old (v2.7.17) or other?   Thanks in advance!
