Installation and Usage

Step 1: Download Anaconda

The easiest way to install Python is by downloading Anaconda (https://www.anaconda.com) for free. Anaconda comes with all essential packages and Python. You need Python 3 (>= 3.6)

Step 2: Install predictr package

Use the package manager pip to install predictr.

pip install predictr

Step 3: Use predictr in an IDE or text editor

Anaconda comes with a bunch of pre-installed packages. Spyder is a very good IDE you can use to get started using Python.

  • Open the Anaconda Navigator and install Spyder if necessary.
  • Open Spyder and create a new file
  • Import predictr in Spyder using:
from predictr import Analysis, PlotAll

Now you're able to use the Analysis and PlotAll classes from predictr. For now, these are the only classes you can import. However, I will add new classes to predictr in the future.
