Installing matplotlib

[tell tsi]

I am trying to get matplotlib to work on my laptop
Windows 7, i3 processor,
I have installed python 2.7
I have also installed matplotlib using the windows binary installer from Source forge download.

I have also downloaded numpy 1.6.1 and run the setup program.

In my Matplotlibrc file and changed the "Interactiv e : True"

But when I open the python 2.7 (command line) and type in the following I get the following output.

does anyone have the step by step instruction on how to install and run the software?

>>> import matplotlib (

well it seems as if it can not find numpy. Try reinstalling it and make sure it all ends up in the correct place.

I have installed python 2.7

Do you also have Python2.6 installed. If you have more than one version of Python installed, you have to use the version that these packages installed to.
