When using a VM Environment for installing NumPy gives the following error:

ERROR: Ignored the following versions that require a different python version: 1.25.0 Requires-Python >=3.9; 1.25.0rc1 Requires-Python >=3.9; 1.25.1 Requires-Python >=3.9; 1.25.2 Requires-Python >=3.9; 1.26.0 Requires-Python <3.13,>=3.9; 1.26.0b1 Requires-Python <3.13,>=3.9; 1.26.0rc1 Requires-Python <3.13,>=3.9; 1.26.1 Requires-Python <3.13,>=3.9; 1.26.2 Requires-Python >=3.9; 1.26.3 Requires-Python >=3.9; 1.26.4 Requires-Python >=3.9; 2.0.0b1 Requires-Python >=3.9; 2.0.0rc1 Requires-Python >=3.9; 2.0.0rc2 Requires-Python >=3.9

Since many VMs come with Python 3.8, it's essential to pick a NumPy version that works with it. The latest version of NumPy that supports Python 3.8 is NumPy 1.24. So, when using a VM with Python 3.8, sticking with NumPy 1.24 or lower is the best case. This way, the code can be executed smoothly without needing to upgrade Python.
