ImportError: DLL load failed when importing Numpy installed in conda virtual environment
<p>In Windows, I created a Conda virtual environment with the command</p>

<pre><code>conda create -n test python=2.7 pandas scipy matplotlib numpy
</code></pre>

<p>Once it is created, I activated the virtual environment and went into a python interpreter. When trying to import numpy, I get the following error:</p>

<pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; import numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
  File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\test\lib\site-packages\numpy\__init__.py", line 180, in &lt;module&gt;
    from . import add_newdocs
  File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\test\lib\site-packages\numpy\add_newdocs.py", line 13, in &lt;module&gt;
    from numpy.lib import add_newdoc
  File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\test\lib\site-packages\numpy\lib\__init__.py", line 8,
 in &lt;module&gt;
    from .type_check import *
  File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\test\lib\site-packages\numpy\lib\type_check.py", line 11, in &lt;module&gt;
    import numpy.core.numeric as _nx
  File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\test\lib\site-packages\numpy\core\__init__.py", line 14, in &lt;module&gt;
    from . import multiarray
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
</code></pre>

<p>Any ideas what is going on here? Thanks!</p>
