Installing NumPy, Matplotlib, SciPy, and IPython on Linux


Installing NumPy and related recommended software on Linux depends on the distribution you have. We will discuss how you would install NumPy from the command line although you could probably use graphical installers; it depends on your distribution (distro). The commands to install Matplotlib, SciPy, and IPython are the same—only the package names are different. Installing Matplotlib, SciPy, and IPython is recommended, but optional.

Most Linux distributions have NumPy packages. We will go through the necessary steps for some of the popular Linux distros:

  • Run the following instructions from the command line for installing NumPy on Red Hat:

    yum install python-numpy
    
  • To install NumPy on Mandriva, run the following command-line instruction:

    urpmi python-numpy
    
  • To install NumPy on Gentoo, run the following command-line instruction:

    sudo emerge numpy
    
  • To install NumPy on Debian or Ubuntu, we need to type the following:

    sudo apt-get install python-numpy
    

The following table gives an overview of the Linux distributions and corresponding package names for NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, and IPython:
