We recommend you use one of the excellent python collections which include
378-
Python itself and a wide range of libraries including matplotlib:
379-
380-
- Anaconda_ from `Continuum Analytics`_
381-
- Canopy_ from Enthought_
382-
- `Python (x, y) <https://code.google.com/p/pythonxy>`_

Python (X, Y) is Windows-only, whereas Anaconda and Canopy are cross-platform.

If you have already installed Python and numpy, you can use one of the
392-
matplotlib binary installers for windows -- you can get these from the
393-
`the PyPI matplotlib page <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/matplotlib>`_
394-
site. Choose the files with an ``.exe`` extension that match your
395-
version of Python (e.g., ``py2.7`` if you installed Python 2.7). If
396-
you haven't already installed Python, you can get the official version
397-
from the `Python web site <http://python.org/download/>`_.
