SciPy Getting Started
Installation of SciPy
If you have Python and PIP already installed on a system, then installation of SciPy is very easy.
Install it using this command:
C:\Users\Your Name>pip install scipy
If this command fails, then use a Python distribution that already has SciPy installed like, Anaconda, Spyder etc.
Import SciPy
Once SciPy is installed, import the SciPy module(s) you want to use in your applications by adding the
from scipy import module statement:
from scipy import constants
Now we have imported the constants module from SciPy, and the application is ready to use it:
Example
How many cubic meters are in one liter:
from scipy import constants
print(constants.liter)
Try it Yourself »
constants: SciPy offers a set of mathematical constants, one of them is
liter which returns 1 liter as cubic meters.
You will learn more about constants in the next chapter.
Checking SciPy Version
The version string is stored under the __version__
attribute.
Note: two underscore characters are used in __version__.
