The NumPy, SciPy and Matplotlib scientific libraries for Python are always a little tricky to install from source because they have all these dependencies they need to build correctly.
There are two ways to install these libraries:
- Using
pip
Python provides an inbuilt package management system pip which can be used to install these libraries
python -m pip install --user numpy scipy matplotlib ipython jupyter pandas sympy nose- Using MacPorts and Python 3.5
sudo port install py35-numpy py35-scipy py35-matplotlib py35-ipython +notebook py35-pandas py35-sympy py35-nose
