How to install Matplotlib on Windows 10

CS 177

Step 1: Know your operating system

Know what bit computer you have! It will either be 32-bit operating system or 64-bit operating system. You can find this under Settings System About "System Type"

Step 2: From there, go to the link they provide us & download the files

ht t p: / / l fd. uci .e du/ ~gohl ke/ pythonli bs / #mat pl ot li b For a 32-bit computer, use these names

numpy- 1. 11. 2+mk l- c p34- c p34m-win32. w hl s c ipy- 0. 18. 1- cp34- cp34m- win32. whl ma t plot lib- 1. 5. 3- c p34- c p34m-w in32. whl For a 64-bit computer, use these names numpy- 1. 11. 2+mkl- c p34- c p34m-win_ amd64. whl s c ipy- 0. 18. 1- cp34- cp34m- win_ amd64.w hl ma t plot lib- 1. 5. 3- c p34- c p34m-w in_a md64.whl

Step 3: Now you need to open cm d.exe, depending on where it is saved in your computer, you m ay have to make another copy in your P ython folder.

-Open the "Run" program by hitting the "Windows key + r" at the same time. You should get this :

-Now, type in cmd.exe, and it will open to a black screen like this

Notice the location of the cmd.exe file, mine was originally in C:\WINDOWS\system32. Well your P ython34 (or whatever version you have) is probably not going to be there, so the cmd file will not find the files you saved in that folder.

-Go to the file cmd is currently in (system 32 for me) and copy it and paste it into the P ython folder where your 3 downloaded files are.

Step 4: Cool. Now you can re-open the cmd.exe file. But when you type in the "Run" program type in the full location name like this :

Hit that "ok" button and Boom! You have the cmd.exe file open in the right place. Now you can begin installing the files!

Step 5: Begin installing the programs like so:

IMP ORTANT!! On the pdf the provided, they forgot a key thing when typing in the scripts provided. -When you are writing "python -m pip install c:\numpy....."

That is not correct unless you s aved those files directly in the C: drive! -You have to type the location the file is in (P ython 34 in my case). So for me, I would type this.

P ython -m pip install c:\Pyton34\numpy...

Opening screen Ex a mp l e

Type in the numpy file name first. Then hit "Enter". Your screen should look like the following for all 3 files
