Pandas import error
Question: I tried installing pandas using `easy_install` and it claimed that it
successfully installed the pandas package in my Python Directory.

I switch to IDLE and try `import pandas` and it throws me the following error
-

` Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
import pandas File "C:\Python27\lib\site-
packages\pandas-0.12.0-py2.7-win32.egg\pandas\__init__.py", line 6, in
<module> from . import hashtable, tslib, lib File "numpy.pxd", line 157, in
init pandas.hashtable (pandas\hashtable.c:20282) ValueError: numpy.dtype has
the wrong size, try recompiling `

Please help me diagnose the error.

FYI: I have already installed the `numpy` package


Answer: Maybe you interrupted pandas install , retry using pip :

First install pip (if you haven't done it already) :

    
    
    easy_install pip
    

then reinstall pandas:

    
    
    pip install pandas --upgrade
    

Hope it helps
