title: Install pandas in ABAQUS 6.14 python environment
body: <p>What I am trying to do is to install the Pandas package in the python distribution that comes within the ABAQUS CAE package. </p>
  
  <p><code>Python 2.7.3 (default, Oct  4 2012, 15:15:08) [MSC v.1600 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32</code></p>
  
  <p>The main problem that I am facing is to get an old version of numpy <code>(1.8.2 max),</code> because pandas require <code>numpy &gt;= 1.7.2</code> but ABAQUS also requires the  multiarray packages discontinued after the version <code>numpy 1.9.0</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I managed to install pip in the python environment but when trying to obtain any of these old versions of <code>numpy (1.7.0 - 1.8.2)</code> it crashes as there is no x64 available modules on the repo. Here is the error code given.</p>
  
  <pre><code>   Rolling back uninstall of numpy 
  Command "C:\SIMULIA\Abaqus\6.14-3\tools\SMApy\python2.7\python.exe -u -c
   "import setuptools,
   tokenize;__file__='c:\\users\\cris\\appdata\\local\\temp\\pip-build-gcrgtg\\numpy\\setup.py';exec(compile(getattr(tokenize,
   'open', open)(__file__).read().replace('\r\n', '\n'), __file__,
   'exec'))" install --record
   c:\users\cris\appdata\local\temp\pip-xjzhpa-record\install-record.txt
   --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in c:\users\cris\appdata\local\temp\pip-build-gcrgtg\numpy\
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have successfully run a x64 Python environment with a <code>numpy 1.7.0</code> package obtained throug <code>conda</code>. But I was unsuccessful trying to apply that methodology to the Python environment embedded in ABAQUS.  </p>
  
  <p>Then, how could I install an old version of <code>numpy &lt;= 1.8.2</code> in a x64 Python environment?</p>
