I am using scipy distribution scipy-0.4.9.win32-py2.4.exe with python 2.4 on Windows XP. When I try to import scipy I get the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#4>", line 1, in ?
    from scipy import *
  File "D:\Python24\lib\site-packages\scipy\__init__.py", line 33, in ?
    del lib
NameError: name 'lib' is not defined

Please help me :sad:

Please show us your code. On line 33 you have "del lib", you are trying to delete an object called "lib" that is not there.

I need help with this code:

File = open(test2.py)

OR

File = open("test2.py"r/w)

I am getting this error after i run it:

Traceback (most recent call last):
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Zeeshan\Desktop\test.py", line 11, in <module>
    File = open(test2.py)
NameError: name 'test2' is not defined

OR

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Zeeshan\Desktop\test.py", line 11, in <module>
    File = open("test2.py"/r)
NameError: name 'r' is not defined

Please Help!!

Ditto.

fh = open("test2.py", "r")

I would avoid using variants of the keyword "file" for variable names.

Try

fh = open("test2.py", "r")

Ditto.

fh = open("test2.py", "r")

I would avoid using variants of the keyword "file" for variable names.

I have the same problem, when I try to open the test.py file, python gives a "SyntaxError: invalid syntax"

When I say:
open ("test.py")
Python respons is:
< open file 'test.py'mode 'r' at 0x00B29E0>
(What does this mean?)

The 'test.py' document has a code:
print 'hello world'

But python doesn't print it... So what do I have to do to make this work???

It means it is file object ready to use.
