Alternatively , we recommend using a conda virtual environments like that:

conda create -n lpi python=3.6 numpy pytest scipy pandas sklearn

Then activate the virtual environment:

source activate lpi # Linux, or
activate lpi # Windows

Then in the folder pyforesee.lpi run:

pip install .

To verify the installation change into the tests directory and run pytest:

cd lpi_distance/tests
pytest
