"No module named scipy" on Windows

Question

In sklearn\base.py, I have the statement from scipy import sparse. I am getting this error "no module named scipy".

I tried to install using pip install scipy, but I get so many errors:

libraries mkl_rt not found
openblas not found
lapack not found
no lapacl/blas resources found

etc.

What should I do on Windows?

Answer 1

I found this solution after days.

Firstly which python version you want to install?

If you want for Python 2.7 version:

STEP 1:

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp27‑cp27m‑win32.whl

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp27‑cp27m‑win32.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl

If you want for Python 3.4 version:

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp34‑cp34m‑win32.whl

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp34‑cp34m‑win_amd64.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp34‑cp34m‑win32.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp34‑cp34m‑win_amd64.whl

If you want for Python 3.5 version:

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp35‑cp35m‑win32.whl

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp35‑cp35m‑win_amd64.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp35‑cp35m‑win32.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp35‑cp35m‑win_amd64.whl

If you want for Python 3.6 version:

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl

scipy‑0.19.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl

numpy‑1.11.3+mkl‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl

Link: click

Once the download finished, go to your directory.

For example my directory:

cd C:\Users\asus\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Scripts>
pip install [where/is/your/downloaded/scipy_whl.]

After that installation

STEP 2:

Numpy+MKL

From same web site based on python version again:

After that use same thing again in Script folder

cd C:\Users\asus\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Scripts>

pip3 install [where/is/your/downloaded/numpy_whl.]

And test it in python folder.
