“failed with error code 1” while installing scipy

Question

I have Python 2.7.9 on windows 7 64-bits. I\'m trying to install scipy using pip. I used pip install scipy but I get the following error :

Comma         


        

Answer 1

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04. I tried installing through pip which kept on failing with error code 1 or took forever to finish (never finished actually!). However, the following command worked without a hitch:

sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib ipython ipython-notebook python-pandas python-sympy python-nose
