SciPy is a Python library used for scientific and technical computing. It builds on NumPy and provides modules for optimization, integration, interpolation, eigenvalue problems, and more. Before using SciPy in your Python project on Windows, you need to install it properly.

Depending on your environment, you can install SciPy using either pip (Python's package installer) or conda (used with Anaconda/Miniconda). Below are simple step-by-step instructions for both methods.

1. Open Command Prompt(CMD)

2. Upgrade pip (optional but recommended):

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

3. Install SciPy using pip:

pip install scipy

scipy-install
