- thearn4 9y ago> conda install matplotlib Anaconda Python really should be more popular on OS X and Linux than it is. Homebrew is okay, but a little bit wonky for Python packages.
- alanbernstein 9y agoThanks for the suggestion. I've briefly tried Anaconda before, unfortunately can't remember why I didn't continue with it. I just tried again and saw an error similar to what I get when I try with pip+brew - ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt4'. Note, this is after spending quite a while installing/removing/upgrading various qt packages and dependencies to try to resolve this. The system might be in a weird state because of that - but I originally started from scratch and only followed the instructions I found on the matplotlib site...
- ylem 9y agoHave you tried installing anaconda?

- onlydnaq 9y agoI would recommend you to try the intel python distribution. Comes with highly optimized numpy, scipy, matplotlib, pandas and so on. Everything compiled with icc and linked with MKL (intels BLAS library).
