how to launch ,like a jupyter ,matplotib etc ? ,sorry for bad english

stonebig commented 7 years ago

Hi @mzakaria130 ,

If you have download and installed a "full" version (for example WinPython-64bit-3.4.4.3Qt5.exe), you should:

%matplotlib inline
# example from Matplotlib gallery of examples
# **http://matplotlib.org/examples/lines_bars_and_markers/line_demo_dash_control.html**
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.linspace(0, 10)
line, = plt.plot(x, np.sin(x), '--', linewidth=2)
dashes = [10, 5, 100, 5]  # 10 points on, 5 off, 100 on, 5 off
line.set_dashes(dashes)
plt.show()

matplotlib_example

You may find some tutorials on the web like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7Mj-4kASmI (google with keywords "matplotlib" "tutorial" "youtube")

mzakaria130 commented 7 years ago

Can be displayed at the spyder IDE ?

stonebig commented 7 years ago

mzakaria130 commented 7 years ago

Can I get a code to display a list of other tools in the IDE spyder

stonebig commented 7 years ago

hi @mzakaria130 . This place is not the right place for broad questions about Spyder. Please go ask them:

J3ronimo commented 7 years ago

Hi stonebig,

I noticed in WinPython3.5.2.1Qt5, tools like the Qt Designer are gone. I read it has something to do with the PyQt5 wheel. Are these tools going to be back with the upcoming version?

Thanks!

stonebig commented 7 years ago

hi @J3ronimo

Apparently, they are gone forever from PyQt official package by Phil Thompson.

My understanding of Phil is that:

The basic part contains a browser, so I won't complain, and it may be the only complement some packages like Flexx will need in PyQt.

J3ronimo commented 7 years ago

Oh okay. It was very handy though to have it working out of the box alongside with PyQt, especially the Designer. Would be nice if someone came up with a working approach for a complementary wheel soon, at least for the Designer, and then maybe this could be added back into WinPython.

Is there a way to download the program in a ZIP fie? After all it should be portable, so why the installer?

Thank You.

stonebig commented 7 years ago

The installer is the historical way. by itself it does nothing but:

So you can "install", "zip" the result, post the "zip" on internet, then "re-unzip" from internet "zip" file, with exact same effect.

RoyiAvital commented 7 years ago

Any chance for ZIP only files?

Thank You.

stonebig commented 7 years ago

zip only of which version exactly ?

RoyiAvital commented 7 years ago

Instead of EXE installer. I'd be happy to have a ZIP which all needed is to extract it.

I know the EXE is only that, yet still.

stonebig commented 7 years ago

which version of WinPython exactly ? the WinPython3.4-64 bit ?

RoyiAvital commented 7 years ago

I always use the latest one, but I guess my request would be for any release. Just in addition to the installer base EXE file add an option to download ZIP file and extract it manually.

Thank You.

diogocp commented 7 years ago

@RoyiAvital if you want to extract the exe without running it, 7-Zip can do it.
