Hi,I'm new to Python and trying to run a already written code. Can someone please explain the error below? And if possible, how do I resolve this?

This particular module incorporates FORTRAN subroutines. My guess is that whoever compiled your scipy binary did it in such a way that the FORTRAN standard library was being linked in as a DLL instead of statically. This DLL is not present on your system. Windows is trying to find it, but failing.
How did you install scipy? If you used a prebuilt binary installer, can you please link to the exact one that you used?
Try using depends.exe to find out what DLL it is looking for. http://www.dependencywalker.com/ The file that you want to check in depends.exe: c:\Python27\lib\site-packages\scipy\special\_ufuncs.pyd -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
