Problem with install QuantEcon

[thuybeu]

I have installed QuantEcon according the following link: https://quantecon.org/quantecon-py, I did tried both, but I cannot use QuantEcon, I always got the error: "python setup.py install
python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory" when installing it in the terminal, even I put the file in my current working directory.
Then, I try the code: pip install -e QuantEcon.py, then there is no error in my code "import quantecon" like before. Then I tried to use MarkovChain and DiscreteRV, I got the errors:
AttributeError: module 'quantecon' has no attribute 'MarkovChain'
AttributeError: module 'quantecon' has no attribute 'DiscreteRV'
I suppose there were some problems during installing QuantEcon, I hope you can help me to fix this problem.

@thuybeu Thanks for your comment. @mmcky Would you mind to handle this?

@thuybeu thanks for raising an issue.

You should be able to install QuantEcon.py using:

pip install quantecon

or if you already have a version installed

pip install --upgrade quantecon

these commands should be done on the command line. The package name on pip is quantecon not QuantEcon.py (looks like you tried: pip install -e QuantEcon.py)

This may also be an issue with numba version number. You may want to try upgrading your anaconda environment using:

conda update conda

to update the package manager, and then

conda update anaconda

to update all of the packages on your machine.

@jstac, @mmcky: Thank you for your help. There was problem with numba version number. I upgraded it first, then installed quantecon. It finally worked.
