PLS REGRESSION -PYTHON packages install

[progster]

Dear all, I need a partial least squares regression, however my spss version 22 says that i need additional Python packages: NumPy y SciPy. I don't understand how to install these packages, since there is no a executable file or a .spe file in the folder.

Thanks in advance

The simplest solution is to install the Anaconda Python distribution from https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/
Be sure that you choose the 32- or 64-bit distribution to match the bitness of your Statistics installation (see Help > About if in doubt).

Once that is done, go to Edit > Options > Files in Statistics and specify the location for the Python distribution installed by Anaconda.  You may need to restart Statistics for this to take effect.

thanks Jon, but in Edit > Options > Files SPSS does not allow me to change python location: it's impossible to flag any option.

still running a pls I see in output: "Extension command  PLS  could not be loaded. The module or a module that it requires may be missing, or there may be syntax errors in it."

[Jon K Peck]

The only situation I know of where that control would be disabled is if you are running Statistics Server, in which case an admin would need to make this change.  However, another way to include the newly installed numpy and scipy is this. (This is what I use.)

Create a file named sitecustomize.py in your <installation directory>\python\lib\site-packages directory, where <installation directory> is wherever you installed Statistics.

The contents of the file should be

import sys
sys.path.append(r"c:/Anaconda/Lib/site-packages")

Replace "c:/Anaconda" with whatever location you installed Anaconda in.

Then restart Statistics.
