[Numpy-discussion] Installing numpy

[Lianyuan Zheng]

Hello,

When I run the command "python numpy install", it shows the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 27, in <module>
    import versioneer
  File "./numpy/versioneer.py", line 1739
    file=sys.stderr)
        ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Is this caused by the python version installed too old (v2.7.17) or other?

Thanks in advance!
Lianyuan
