Unable to import numpy after installing Anaconda

Question

I just installed Anaconda 3.5. The terminal shows the correct version and even contains Continuum Analytics in brackets:

Python 3.5.0 |Continuum Analytics, Inc.| (default, Oct 20 2015, 14:39:26) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5577)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. 

However, when I type the following:

 >>> import numpy 

I get an error message:

 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named 'numpy' 

I know that Anaconda comes with numpy (I ran the conda list , just to make sure). Does anyone know what is going on?

It seems possible that my .bash_profile has something to do with it. If so, the content follows.

 # Setting PATH for Python 2.7 # The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:${PATH}" export PATH # added by Anaconda3 2.3.0 installer export PATH="/Users/username/anaconda/bin:$PATH" # Setting PATH for Python 3.5 # The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin:${PATH}" export PATH 

Answer 1

I ended up uninstalling Anaconda and all versions of Python 3. After reinstalling Anaconda, numpy was available. Interestingly, in the version that works, the terminal displays the following information:

 Python 3.5.0 |Anaconda 2.4.0 (x86_64)| (default, Oct 20 2015, 14:39:26) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5577)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. 

Thus, it is obvious that "Continuum Analytics" does not mean that you are using Anaconda.
