Sorry for being so dense here guys!! I do tons and tons of work with VBA, VB,
C#, SQL, R, Matlab, and a little work with Pascal. I guess that's preventing
me from understanding how Python works. Sorry, but I just don't understand
this thing. I uninstalled Python27 and just reinstalled it. I open the cmd
prompt, and entered two short commands: 'pip install numpy' & 'pip install
pandas'. Then, I got to Python Shell and enter this: 'import numpy' & 'import
pandas'. immediately I get errors.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in <module>
import numpy
ImportError: No module named numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>
import pandas
ImportError: No module named pandas
I guess if I can't do something simple, I can't do anything complex...or
anything at all.
Part of the problem is, I don't know why in 2014 we're entering commands in the
C-prompt to run a Windows program. I thought all of that stuff was over in the
very early 1990s. Also, I can't understand why Python can't download this from
the Internet.
If someone can help me figure this out, I'd be most appreciative. I don't want
to give up, but after spending over 6 months learning Python, and reading 15
Python books cover to cover, I don't understand why a simple 'import pandas'
can't even work!! That's about as basic as it gets.
Ugh.
