Setting Up pyUni10¶
Preparing Your System¶
You need to have Python 2 installed on your computer.
- If you are using Linux or MacOS X, Python 2 comes with the system.
- For the lectures, you also need to install iPython.
- As an integrated distribution, we recommend the Anaconda Scientific Python Distribution.
Library Dependencies¶
pyUni10 requires BLAS and LAPACK libraries to run.
- For Linux users, you need to install BLAS and LAPACK.
- For Mac OS X users, BLAS and LAPACK come with the OS, so you don’t have to do anything.
- For Windows users, required libraries are supplied in the pyUni10 package.
