we're going to have to know a lot more about what you've done so far, but; a) unless you have a strong reason to use Python2.6, I'd use 2.5: - install the python 2.5 form the python,org web site (it looks like you have done this - install the binary for numpy for python 2.5: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1369&package_id=175103 You're done. b) if you really need 2.6, you'll have to build numpy yourself: - Install the binary of Python2.6 from the python web site - make sure that's the one you get when you type "python": . "which python" may help here . If it's not, edit your .bash_profile to get it on your PATH. - download the source tarball for numpy . unpack it into somewhere in your home directory - Make sure you have the Apple development tools: XCodeTools - cd into the numpy dir, and type: $ python setup.py build $ python setup.py install - run python, and type "import numpy" Last I checked, the binary for ScipPy was broken, you'll need to get gfortran and compile it yourself, as the page tells you. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
