The code I am trying to run is this one: ( Microsoft Visual Studio Coomunity 2015, Open cv 3.1.0. and numpy is downloaded in directory C:)

PS: how can I copy-paste the code here so you can read it properly?

#import numpy as np
#import cv2

//cargamos la plantilla e inicializamos la webcam :
face_cascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier('haarcascade_frontalface_alt.xml')
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

while (True) :
    //leemos un frame y lo guardamos
    ret, img = cap.read()

    //convertimos la imagen a blanco y negro
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

    //buscamos las coordenadas de los rostros(si los hay) y
    //guardamos su posicion
    faces = face_cascade.detectMultiScale(gray, 1.3, 5)

    //Dibujamos un rectangulo en las coordenadas de cada rostro
    for (x, y, w, h) in faces :
cv2.rectangle(img, (x, y), (x + w, y + h), (125, 255, 0), 2)

//Mostramos la imagen
cv2.imshow('img', img)

//con la tecla 'q' salimos del programa
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q') :
    break
    cap.release()
    cv2 - destroyAllWindows()

is that supposed to be python ? (then you'll have to go back and learn the language basics)

Please remove # tag. Just save the above program with an extension .py and run the program as below.

Step 1 Go to Command Prompt. type- Python and hit enter key. it will move you to the Python environment by showing >>> symbol on the command prompt screen.

Step 2 just verify whether your numpy has successfully installed in your PC or not by typing the command;-" import numpy" . If it is showing >>> symbol, then your numpy installation is ok. If not u have to uninstall the numpy and re-install it again.

Step 3 If numpy is correctly installed in your pc, then compile your code with following command:- Python name_of_the_program_file.py and hit enter key

It will compile your code.

This is very simple procedure.

OK thank you, but it doesn´t recognize "Python" othingsn Command Prompt Visual Studio 2015... I guess I am mixing too many things, I don´t know the basics also... just learning on my own!

python uses # for comments , not // (this will throw a lot of other errors later)

so, your import statements have to look like:

import numpy as np
import cv2

also: " and numpy is downloaded in directory C:"

this is the wrong place. numpy has to go into python/Lib/site-packages (same as the cv2.pyd)

Yes it is in that directory, thanks, yesterday I added a new pythonpath- to there, because I didn´t know I was mixing languages-I am starting learning, on my own. Thanks!
