Re: [DIYbio] biopython on windows

Stop right there. Now go get Anaconda (free) which will resolve all
your Python issues. Comes with Python 2.7, NumPy, Pandas, etc., etc.
all out of the box, and you can get things like biopython via "conda
install biopython" in an Anaconda Command Prompt window. No compilers
or other prerequisites required. Windows/Mac/Linux.

Once you have it installed, check out iPython Notebook for doing all
your scientific computation. (do a "conda update ipython" to get the
newly released 3.0 too)

http://ipython.org/notebook.html

Best scientific toolset ever!
