[Numpy-discussion] numpy installation in ubuntu

[Alex Ter-Sarkissov]

hi everyone, i'm very new to ubuntu, now trying to install numpy and
wxpython.

Having unpacked numpy and running the standard commnad in idle

from numpy import *

i get the message

ImportError: Error importing numpy: you should not try to import numpy from
        its source directory; please exit the numpy source tree, and
relaunch
        your python intepreter from there.

I quit the folder with numpy, relaunched python, but the module wasn't even
identified.

thanks
