Hello @sanjana ,

Try to install it  python package using pip:

$ sudo python2 get-pip.py   # for python 2.7
$ sudo python3 get-pip.py   # for python 3.x

 Then install scipy using pip:

$ pip2 install scipy    # for python 2.7
$ pip3 install scipy    # for python 3.x

Hope it helps!!
Thank You!!

Hi@Sanjana,

Actually you are missing one underscore in your command. It should be __version__ instead of _version_. Try to correct your command as shown below.

import scipy
print('scipy: {}'.format(scipy.__version__))
