Using python and matplotlib on android

Question

Is there a way to set up python 2.7.x + matplotlib on an android tablet so that you can run simple standard python code? I would like to be able to run the same scripts I ru

Answer 1

There is a lot of incorrect information in this thread! I first tried Termux, using the information from this thread: How do I install Jupyter notebook on an Android device? but could not get Matplotlib downloaded for the life of me. The error messages suggested I needed to install wheel, which I did, but the install crash was only postponed. I am not saying it is not possible to install Matplotlib from Termux on a Galaxy Tab A, but I cannot do it. On the other hand, downloading Pyroid3 was straightforward, as was installing numpy, scipy and matplotlib. So that's my recommendation, based on success in doing so.
