Hi Ralf, Thank you so much for your answer.
I finally figured out that the problem was because Numpy 1.9 was not linked to BLAS. I do not know why because I simply installed numpy 1.9 via the commands: apt-get install python3-numpy If anybody has the same problem, you may want to take a look into this: http://osdf.github.io/blog/numpyscipy-with-openblas-for-ubuntu-1204-second-try.html Best Regards, Ecem On Fri, Jul 22, 2016 at 5:19 PM Ecem sogancıoglu <ecemsogancio...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear Ralf, > > Thank you so much for your answer. > > I finally figured out that the problem was because Numpy 1.9 was not > linked to BLAS.
