python 3.x - import cvxopt.base: the specified module could not be found

Question

I'm new to Python, just installed cvxopt module for my Python3.3 system (64 bit). The installation was successful, but when I typed "import cvxopt" in Python command line, it returned an error:

File "C:Program Files (x86)Pythonlibsite-packagescvxopt__init__.py", line 33, in import cvxopt.base ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

Could anyone help me on this problem? Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

You need to import numpy first before importing cvxopt.

import numpy
import cvxopt
