I am currently using pandas 0.14.1 with Spyder 2.3.1 and Python 3.4 --- is there an easy way to get an updated pandas release?

This is a follow up question from a post I made last week: python pandas extract year from datetime --- df['year'] = df['date'].year is not working

Thanks!

    Use pip, `pip install -U pandas` ? – Zero May 26 '15 at 14:48

    That depends on how you installed it – joris May 26 '15 at 14:58
  • John Galt - in iPython, type "pip install _U pandas" ? – MJS May 26 '15 at 15:02
  • I see on other page you are using anaconda/conda which is generally good. In one of your commands I notice you have `==` instead of `=` which could be a problem. This would be a good question to ask on the anaconda mailing list: https://groups.google.com/a/continuum.io/forum/#!forum/anaconda – JohnE May 26 '15 at 15:40
  • `pip` and `conda` commands should be typed at your system prompt, not from within ipython. That might be your problem... – JohnE May 26 '15 at 15:42
  • JohnE - pretty embarrassing, that was the issue. i was in ipython. thank you. – MJS May 26 '15 at 15:57
  • No worries, the documentation is often not explicit about where to enter those commands, so it's easy to do that and not uncommon. That's also why it can be helpful to include the actual error message in the question and then somebody might figure it out sooner. – JohnE May 26 '15 at 16:52

I prefer pip to sovle this. Maybe easy_install can work too.
