What is the easiest way to install BLAS and LAPACK for scipy?

Question

I would like to run a programme that someone else has prepared and it includes scipy. I have tried to install scipy with

pip install scipy

Answer 1

The SciPy installation page already recommends several ways of installing python with SciPy already included, such as WinPython.

Another way is to use wheels (a built-package format):

pip install SomePackage-1.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl

The wheel packages you can find on: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

For SciPy you need:

• the NumPy wheel packages
• and the SciPy wheel packages
