python 3.5 Scipy package installation on windows 10

Question

In windows 10 as an administrator in command prompt I want to install "scipy". But after this command : pip install sctipy I have been faced with these errors :

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>pip install scipy
Collecting scipy
  Using cached scipy-0.19.0.zip
                                                                                Building wheels for collected packages: scipy

  `setup.py clean` is not supported, use one of the following instead:

    - `git clean -xdf` (cleans all files)
    - `git clean -Xdf` (cleans all versioned files, doesn't touch
                        files that aren't checked into the git repo)

  Add `--force` to your command to use it anyway if you must (unsupported).

How Can I solve this issue?

Thanks.

Answer 1

I guess if you reinstall your python setup tools it will solve the error :

pip uninstall setuptools
pip install setuptools

Answer 2

I recommend installing via a wheel if possible - it avoids need for compilation which, on Windows, can be a major pain. You may need to download further packages that scipy depends on. There's a great archive of wheel files here, courtesy of Christoph Gohlke: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

If you download a wheel, you can install by using pip as you normally would but referencing the wheel filename:

pip install SomePackage-1.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl

Personal tip - keep hold of the wheel files you need. Ones hosted on pypi are normally safe, but elsewhere they may disappear and/or be replaced by newer versions. Check for newer versions by all means, but you can be left in an awkward position if they disappear altogether.
