As noted in #13 the installation is currently broken, as setup.py tries to import chumpy to get the version string, which fails when any of chumpy's own requirements aren't installed beforehand.
This fixes the issue by using execfile to directly grab the version string from version.py instead of attempting to import the actual chumpy package. Some minor markdown updates to the README file are also included.
