Package Installation 2018 #13

I just had a question about how you installed your packages... I am having issues installing pystan because it requires a C++ compiler, however, I am not able to install one. This then affects the installation of fbprophet. If you could explain what you did, that would be of great help.

Thanks!

Hello Shwin,

Try to install visual studio 2015 IDE and it should resolve that issue.

This helped me to install the compiler and get it set up

The key part is this conda install libpython m2w64-toolchain -c msys2

You can use conda to install a C++ compiler as recommended by @VictorHM.

I use mingw installed with Anaconda (I'm on Windows which might affect the compiler required). conda install mingw should work.
