pip install cython 

and works perfectly.

pip install numpy 

fails long list of error messages. correct way or should give trying pip?

pip building numpy source , that's quite undertaking. failure @ end tells me may not have compiler configured distutils. use windows sdk compiler myself: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8279

if use one, should define environment variables:

set mssdk=1 set distutils_use_sdk=1 

having said that, it's easier install numpy , scipy using 1 of .msi installers can find here: http://scipy.org/download. numpy relies on blas linear algebra libraries , build of highly technical , build of numpy source on windows best avoided unless have reason so.
