PY3.5 and nnumpy and scipy installation problem
Hi All— I am a beginner in Python and new to this list, but I am an experienced programming in a few other languages. Last year I installed numpy and scipy for Python3.3 on my computer with windows 7, 64 bit OS. Today I downloaded Python3.5, but I the installation for numpy 1.9.2 or 1.9.3 nor scipy 0.16.0 did work on the same computer. Basically the setup for both numpy and scipy did not work. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Sincerely, EKE -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
PY3.5 and nnumpy and scipy installation problem
Hi Steven, Thank you for the prompt response. What I meant by not working is the following: once I had py3.5 working, I downloaded numpy and scipy and unzipped them. After that I tried to install them. But there is no install file for either. There was a setup file which I thought would do the same. However, when I double clicked it, it showed a python window for a sec and that’s all. When I went to IDEL and typed import numpy as np I got the following error message which suggests PY did not find numpy. >>> import numpy as np Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in import numpy as np ImportError: No module named 'numpy' >>> Thanks again, EK -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
PY3.5 and nnumpy and scipy installation problem
Hi All again— Thanks to all who have provided excellent tips for installing Python, Numpy, Scipy, etc. Paul suggested the use Anaconda which proved to be the best and easiest way for me. If I may add I stumbled on an academic site that spells out in great details how to install Python, numpy, scipy and others which helped me greatly. For any installation issue here is the link http://www.southampton.ac.uk/~fangohr/blog/installation-of-python-spyder-numpy-sympy-scipy-pytest-matplotlib-via-anaconda.html Thanks again---EK -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Pandas' loading a CSV file problem
Hi All---
I am new to Pandas. I am trying to load a csv file into pandas using
import pandas as pd
f = pd.read_csv(OSATemp.csv')
Even though I was able to read and manipulate the file in Python343, in
Pandas the file could not be loaded. When I run the above statement, I get
a series of massages such as
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\EK Esawi\Anaconda3\Scripts\file1.py", line 3, in
f = pd.read_csv('c:/Users/EK Esawi/My Documents/Temp/GOSATemp.csv')
File "C:\Users\EK
Esawi\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pandas\io\parsers.py", line 474, in
parser_f
Any help/suggestion is greatly appreciated—EKE
Here is a sample of my csv file:

Pandas' loading a CSV file problem
Thanks you all for the input. Michiel's suggestion worked. At first It gave me an error about "low_memory"; once i sat low_memory to false, it worked. I am new to pandas and i am working on a 20,000 record csv file with mixed data types and in many cases, one entry (cell) has a combination of string and numeric values which will eventually be separated. Thanks again-EK -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
cvxopt install problem
Hi All— I needed to install cvxopt on a 64 bit W7. I found out that cvxopt is incompatible with a 64 bit. It only compatible with a 32 bit which can be installed on a 64 bit computer and it works. I stumbled on this on another discussion group posting. The suggestion was to install python 32 bit on a 64 bit computer, then download cvxopt and install it via conda. Here is the suggestion from the posting [If you are using Windows, an easy solution could be the Anaconda distribution (http://continuum.io/downloads). Select and install the 32 bit version. It will be easier to install the cvxopt package. Search it in the binstar repository ( https://binstar.org/search?q=cvxopt). Open a console terminal and install it (e. g. "conda install -chttps://conda.binstar.org/omnia cvxopt").?] I did everything except the last command to install cvxopt, that’s “conda install -chttps://conda.binstar.org/omnia cvxopt". Here is the command I used: conda install c:/Users/eesawi0001/Downloads/cvxopt-1.1.7-py34.tar I kept getting invalid syntax Any help is greatly appreciated.

Pandsa to Excel conversion issue
Hi All-- I am using Pandas to read an excel file which is very "dirty" and needs cleaning. I read the file via pandas and did not setup dtypes or converters hoping i can do so later.. When i run my code, most columns did come out as strings but i cannot convert them to float or integer using astype or pandas.to numeric method. Every time i tried, i get the same error listed below Here is my code import pandas as pd import numpy as np MyFile='C:/Users/Temp.xlsx' df=pd.read_excel(io=MyFile, nrows=100) The error message i get when i tried to convert a string like '22.3' via astype or pd.to_numeric is below Unable to parse string "22." at position 0 Thanks in advance EK -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
