To install the necessary packages, we first have to make a Python project:
Select "Python Application" and enter desired name for the project. Then press "OK". If you have not installed Python, open the Visual Studio Installer (marked red) and install Python.
After we have made our project, it's time to install the packages. This can be done in several ways:
Type the following command into the terminal and hit Enter:
python -m pip install --user numpy scipy matplotlib ipython jupyter pandas sympy nose |
The packages are now installed!
Select View → Other Windows → Python Environments. Python Environments will then open.
In the dropdown menu where "Overview" currently is selected, select the "Packages" tab and you will see a list of currently packages installed.
Type in the package you wish to install in the search bar, e.g. "NumPy". Select the option "Run command: pip install numpy".
The message "----- Successfully installed 'NumPy' ------" should then be displayed in the Output window.
