I found out that cvxopt is incompatible with a 64 bit. It only compatible with a 32 bit which can be installed on a 64 bit computer and it works. I stumbled on this on another discussion group posting. The suggestion was to install python 32 bit on a 64 bit computer, then download cvxopt and install it via conda. Here is the suggestion from the posting [If you are using Windows, an easy solution could be the Anaconda distribution (http://continuum.io/downloads)= . Select and install the 32 bit version. It will be easier to install the cvxopt package. Search it in the binstar repository ( https://binstar.org/search?q=3Dcvxopt). Open a console terminal and install it (e. g. "conda install -chttps://conda.binstar.org/omnia cvxopt").?] I did everything except the last command to install cvxopt, that=E2=80=99s = =E2=80=9Cconda install -chttps://conda.binstar.org/omnia cvxopt". Here is the command I used: conda install c:/Users/eesawi0001/Downloads/cvxopt-1.1.7-py34.tar I kept getting invalid syntax Any help is greatly appreciated. EKE
