In this tutorial, you will be setting up a numerical Python development environment for Windows 10. As you might have already realized, Python is rather simple to set up on a Linux/macOS box but as with many open source-based projects getting up and running on Windows is never trivial.
Good solutions for Windows are Enthought Canopy{.reference.external}, Anaconda{.reference.external} (which both provide binary installers for Windows, OS X, and Linux), and Python (x, y).
