From: Mark Lawrence on 17 Jun 2010 01:18 I'm like to go direct to Python 3.1 if possible, but if necessary I'll happily use Python 2.7 as an interim measure. However I'm uncertain as to the status of matplotlib and its dependency on numpy. I've tried googling their development mailing lists but don't really understand what the current situation is. Could somebody please recommend whether I take the direct or indirect route to Python 3.1. FWIW I'm on Windows Vista. TIA. Mark Lawrence.

IIUC, its not That Terribly Awfully Long Away (meaning, some indeterminate time probably counted in months and not years), but its not there yet. -- Stephen Hansen ... Also: Ixokai ...

Maybe not on Vista, though. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco |
