I have NumPy and SciPy installed and working. I'm using Python 2.5 (MIT Intro to Programming course) so I've been installing the packages with .exe files instead of Pip or Anaconda. With MatPlotLib, I get the following errors during installation:
could not create: matplotlib-py2.5
could not create: python 2.5 matplotlib-1.0.0
could not set key value: "C:\Python25\Removematplotlib.exe" -u "C:\Python25\matplotlib-wininst.log"
I have a MatPlotLib folder in Python's Lib/site-packages directory. Importing matplotlib into IDLE works fine. But when I try to import pylab:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
import pylab

from matplotlib._path import affine_transform
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
I've looked around on different message boards but can't find anyone else with this issue.
Any ideas?

I tried several ways such as reinstalling matplotlib and pasting new "Msvcp71.dll" and "Msvcr71.dll" files in my system folders. Anyways to solve this problem?
... reinstall the matplotlib python package with this argument --ignore-installed:
pip3 install matplotlib --user --ignore-installed

There is a package called six which matplotlib depends on. Check to make sure it's installed, or install it from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#six
This site has packaged versions of many python modules which are easy to setup on windows, just download and run.
Also check the other dependencies to make sure you have them all, otherwise you might get another error for a different module
I am really new to python and I am trying to install the statsmodels module. It seems that since I am on a 64 bits I need to use the following unofficial website http://www.lfd.uci.edu/ I did all I know about how to download a whl and I did download it and used the pip afterwards and all work fine. now when I do pip install statsmodels it work fine. However, in my shell after I try import the stats models I am getting
import statsmodels

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance
A specific package that I'm trying to run is fastStructure. After installing all the requirements (numpy, scipy, cython, gsl, matplotlib), when I try to execute the script I get the following error:
python distruct.py

ImportError: /data003/GIF/software/packages/python/2.7.9/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/_path.so: undefined symbol: __libm_sse2_sincos
Does this mean that some of the requirements weren't properly installed? or Am I missing some of the basic packages that are supposed to be there on all computers?
If it helps I am on a large HPC cluster, running RHEL with intel processors.
I am unable to find any information about this error and I am unable to move forward. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT:
Specifically,
import matplotlib.pyplot as plot
is what causing this error.
I want to use Python for trying out hddm.
I installed anaconda, Python 2.7. When I try to follow the hddm tutorial in the command line window in spyder, the following happens, which seems to be a problem in pymc:
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline
import hddm
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<ipython-input-24-17365318b31c>", line 1, in <module>
import hddm

import likelihoods

from .distributions import *
File "/Users/c/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pymc/distributions.py", line 30, in <module>
from . import flib, utils
ImportError: cannot import name flib
I work on Mac OS X 10.7. On the web, I find some comments concerning pymc possibly not being compiled with the correct version of gfortran, but the solutions all seem to be for windows. Also, I thought that this kind of problem should not happen with an integrated system like Anaconda?
There are two options:
use conda install -c conda.binstar.org/pymc pymc
install gfortran and use pip install -U pymc
