We recommend installing <tt class="docutils literal">pip</tt>, which is the standard package
manager of Python.  It works like it does on CPython as explained in the
<a class="reference external" href="http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/install.html">installation documentation</a>.</p>
<p>If you use your distribution's PyPy package we recommend you install packages
into a virtualenv. If you try to build a module and the build process complains
about &ldquo;missing Python.h&rdquo;, you may need to install the pypy-dev package.</p>

<h2>1. Standard NumPy</h2>
<p>Installation works on any recent PyPy (the <a class="reference internal" href="#release">release</a> above is fine).
The currently released numpy 1.13 works except for <tt class="docutils literal">nditers</tt> with the
<tt class="docutils literal">updateifcopy</tt> flag.
For example, without using a virtualenv:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">

<p>The &ldquo;numpy&rdquo; module can also be installed from <a class="reference external" href="https://bitbucket.org/pypy/numpy">our own repository</a> rather
than from the official source.  This version uses our
built-in <tt class="docutils literal">_numpypy</tt> multiarray replacement module, written in RPython.
This module is not complete, but if it works it should give correct answers.
Its performance is hard to predict exactly.  For regular NumPy
source code that handles large arrays, it is likely to be slower than
the standard NumPy.  It is faster on pure python code that loop over ndarrays
doing things on an element-by-element basis.</p>
<p>Installation (see the <a class="reference external" href="http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/install.html">installation documentation</a> for installing <tt class="docutils literal">pip</tt>):</p>
pypy -m pip install git+https://bitbucket.org/pypy/numpy.git
</pre>
<p>Alternatively, the direct way:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
git clone https://bitbucket.org/pypy/numpy.git
cd numpy
pypy setup.py install
</pre>
<p>If you installed to a system directory, you need to also run this once:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
sudo pypy -c 'import numpy'
</pre>
<p>Note again that this version is incomplete: many things do
not work and those that do may not be any faster than NumPy on CPython.

<li><p class="first">On some 32-bit systems, the address space limit of 2 or 3 GB of RAM
can be an issue.  More generally you may be just a little bit low of
RAM.  First note that 2 GB is really not enough nowadays; on Windows
you first need to refer to the <a class="reference external" href="http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/windows.html#preparing-windows-for-the-large-build">Windows build instructions</a>.  More
precisely, translation on 32-bit takes at this point 2.7 GB if PyPy is
used and 2.9 GB if CPython is used.  There are two workarounds:</p>
<p>1. use PyPy, not CPython.  If you don't have any PyPy so far, not even
an older version, then you need to build one first, with some parts
removed.  So, first translate with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">...rpython</span> <span class="pre">-Ojit</span>
targetpypystandalone <span class="pre">--withoutmod-micronumpy</span> <span class="pre">--withoutmod-cpyext</span></tt>,
then copy <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">pypy-c</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal">libpypy_c.so</tt> somewhere else, and finally
call it with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">...pypy-c</span> <span class="pre">../../rpython/bin/rpython</span> <span class="pre">-Ojit</span></tt>.</p>
<p>2. if even using PyPy instead of CPython is not enough, try to tweak
some internal parameters.  Example (slower but saves around 400MB):</p>

<p>It is recommended to use package.py because custom scripts will
invariably become out-of-date.  If you want to write custom scripts
anyway, note an easy-to-miss point: some modules are written with CFFI,
and require some compilation.  If you install PyPy as root without
pre-compiling them, normal users will get errors:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>PyPy 2.5.1 or earlier: normal users would see permission errors.
Installers need to run <tt class="docutils literal">pypy <span class="pre">-c</span> &ldquo;import gdbm&rdquo;</tt> and other similar
commands at install time; the exact list is in <a class="reference external" href="https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/default/pypy/tool/release/package.py">package.py</a>.  Users
seeing a broken installation of PyPy can fix it after-the-fact if they
have sudo rights, by running once e.g. <tt class="docutils literal">sudo pypy <span class="pre">-c</span> &quot;import gdbm</tt>.</li>
<li>PyPy 2.6 and later: anyone would get <tt class="docutils literal">ImportError: no module named
_gdbm_cffi</tt>.  Installers need to run <tt class="docutils literal">pypy _gdbm_build.py</tt> in the
<tt class="docutils literal">lib_pypy</tt> directory during the installation process (plus others;
see the exact list in <a class="reference external" href="https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/default/pypy/tool/release/package.py">package.py</a>).  Users seeing a broken
installation of PyPy can fix it after-the-fact, by running <tt class="docutils literal">pypy
/path/to/lib_pypy/_gdbm_build.py</tt>.  This command produces a file
called <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_gdbm_cffi.pypy-41.so</span></tt> locally, which is a C extension
module for PyPy.  You can move it at any place where modules are
normally found: e.g. in your project's main directory, or in a
directory that you add to the env var <tt class="docutils literal">PYTHONPATH</tt>.</li>
