Installing Numpy From

(I looked at many answers on here but similar questions were not answered or didn't address my question). I use numpy + scipy + matplotlib on Mac-OSX 10.8.5. I have numpy 1.6.1 on

Solution 1:

Three solutions, one is the one given in my comment, but an easier one might be to change your PYTHONPATH. On the command line:

export PYTHONPATH=/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/:$PYTHONPATH

To make the change permanent, put that line in your

~/.bashrc

file.

From my comment: I'm not sure how dangerous it is, but to just move the installation to be with your others, you could try

mv /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/n‌​umpy/ /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/n‌​umpy_old/
cp /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/nump‌​‌​y/ /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/n‌​umpy/

Finally, you could try using pip to install numpy. To see where pip is installed, type this in terminal:

which pip

If it's where you want it to be (/Library/...), then all you have to do is

pip install numpy
