which windows python to use?

[N/A]

hi,

if mathematical and numerical algorithm are all you need, then just go 
for Enthought distribution + Matplotlib. The Enthought distribution 
provides all packages you need and handy for insatllation!

My combo:
1. Enthought Distribution
2. Matplotlib
3. EmEditor
