- Installing GDAL (Python 3.6) on Mac OS X. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets. Gdalmerge.py seems to need numpy, and this is not part of.
- Previously we’ve seen Matrices as lists of lists, here we focus on matrices using Numpy library. There are substantially two ways to represent matrices in Python: as list of lists, or with the external library numpy. The most used is surely Numpy, let’s see the reason the principal differences: List of lists - see separate notebook.

This is a short tutorial about installing Python 3 with NumPy, SciPy and Matplotlib on Windows.
There is also a video version of this tutorial:
The numpy.amax method returns the maximum of an array or maximum along the axis(if mentioned). The input array. If the default value is passed, then keepdims will not be passed through to the all method of sub-classes of ndarray, however any non-default value will be. If the sub-classes sum method.
We’ll start by installing the latest stable version of Python 3, which at the time of this writing is 3.8. Head over to https://www.python.org/downloads/ and download the installer. The default Python Windows installer is 32 bits and this is what I will use in this article. If you need the 64 bits version of Python, check the Looking for a specific release? section from the above page.
Start the installer and select Customize installation. On the next screen leave all the optional features checked. Finally, on the Advanced Options screen make sure to check Install for all users, Add Python to environment variables and Precompile standard library. Optionally, you can customize the install location. I’ve used C:Python38. You should see something like this:
Press the Install button and in a few minutes, depending on the speed of your computer, you should be ready. On the last page of the installer, you should also press the Disable path length limit:
Now, to check if Python was correctly installed, open a Command Prompt (or a PowerShell) window. Press and hold the SHIFT key and right click with your mouse somewhere on your desktop, select Open command window here. Alternatively, on Windows 10, use the bottom left search box to search for cmd.

Write python in the command window and press Enter, you should see something like this:
Exit from the Python interpreter by writing quit() and pressing the Enter key.
Now, open a cmd window like before. Use the next set of commands to install NumPy, SciPy and Matplotlib:
After each of the above commands you should see Successfully installed ….
How To Install Numpy In Python 3.6 Mac
Launch Python from a cmd window and check the version of Scipy, you should see something like this:
Let’s try something a bit more interesting now, let’s plot a simple function with Matplotlib. First, we’ll import SciPy and Matplotlib with:
Next, we can define some points on the (0, 1) interval with:
Now, let’s plot a parabola defined by the above interval:
You should see something like this:
If you want to learn more about Python and Matplotlib, I recommend reading Python Crash Course by Eric Matthes. The book is intended for beginners, but has a nice Data Visualization intro to Matplotlib chapter:
Another good Python book, for more advanced users, which also uses Matplotlib for some of the book projects is Python Playground by Mahesh Venkitachalam:
