Hello Sir,
I am working with Lammps,and try to visualize and analyze my job by pizza.py.But when i’m trying to install it in Ubuntu getting problems,I have installed Python 2.7.3 , most probably it has Tcl/tk Lib.When I run pizza.py from the src directory (by double clicking it) the terminal shows the following errors

Pizza.py (5 Aug 2012), a toolkit written in Python
type ? for help, CTRL-D to quit
Loading tools …
bdump tool did not load:
No module named Numeric
mdump tool did not load:
No module named Numeric
animate tool did not load:

tdump tool did not load:

ldump tool did not load:
No module named Numeric
vmd tool did not load:
No module named numpy
image tool did not load:

I have gone through the documentation of pizza.py but after a long effort I can’t overcome such problems.Please help me by making some suggestions on it preferably if you give me the command line,I would be highly thankful to you.
Waiting for your kind reply.Thanks in advance.

Any tool that does not load cannot be used. It's telling
you what package needs to be part of your Python in order
for that tool to load. The doc/Section_install.html describes
all those add-on Python packages (like Numeric) and tells
you where to get them and how to install them in your Python.

what version of pizza.py are you using? i think the Numeric module is obsolete in newer python versions - the last update on Numeric was made somewhen in 2009.
i have this year’s may22 version of pizza.py and it is perfectly happy with numpy. you should be able to install this module via your repositories quite easily.

as for the OpenGL.Tk module - i don’t have this one either, however i’ve never needed the gl tool so i can’t help you much with this one. but i’m sure it can be found somewhere and installed manually in the worst case.

best,

The current Pizza.py will use either Numeric or Numpy. Nikita is correct
that you should install Numpy; Numeric is obsolete.
