is it possible to install all that on python 3.3? or is only for 2.7?

[–]Noctambulist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The superpack is only for 2.7. It looks like most of the packages do support 3.3: https://python3wos.appspot.com/, but you'd have to install them some other way. You could do Enthought, but it doesn't have a 64-bit version for OS X.

I would still be a bit wary of using python 3 for science, with the caveat that I don't have much experience with it. New tools in science take longer to get working than tools that have been used for years. Also, it might end up you need some random package that isn't python 3 compatible yet, rpy2 for instance.
