installing numpy for pypy: No module named setuptools

Question

When I try to set up numpy on windows with the command prompt with

C:\numpy>pypy setup.py install

I get:

ImportError: No module named setuptools

But setuptools seems to be installed, do I miss something?

>python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools 

Requirement already up-to-date: setuptools in 
c:\users\p\appdata\local\programs\python\python36\lib\site-packages

I also tried to install numpy with pypy3 instead of pypy2:

C:\numpy>pypy3 setup.py install

but then I get the following error (bear with me! :) )

C:\numpy>pypy3 setup.py install
Running from numpy source directory.

itertools.izip is a Py2 function, not in py3. stackoverflow.com/questions/32659552/… — hpaulj

python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools is installing setuptools for CPython. You need to say pypy -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools.

You may have to say first pypy -m ensurepip, once.

pypy3 -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools says /usr/bin/pypy3: No module named pip

You need to run ensurepip once. Updated my answer.
