How to install in python 3.4 - .whl files

Question

I recently tried to re-install numpy for python 3.4, since I got a new computer, and am struggling. I am on windows 8.1, and from what I remember I previously used a .exe fi

Python 3.4 comes with PIP already included in the package, so you should be able to start using PIP immediately after installing Python 3.4. Commands like pip install only work if the path to PIP is included in your path environment variable. If it's not, and you'd rather not edit your environment variables, you need to provide the full path. The default location for PIP in Python 3.4 is in C:\Python34\Scripts\pip3.4.exe. If that file exists there (it should), enter the command C:\Python34\Scripts\pip3.4.exe install , where is the full path to your numpy .whl file. For example: C:\Python34\Scripts\pip3.4.exe install C:\Users\mwinfield\Downloads\numpy‑1.9.2+mkl‑cp34‑none‑win_amd64.whl.
