Run with modules

If you are trying to run the script that required some module for instance numpy, you might face module not found error.

Code is running Traceback (most recent call last): File "/app/main.py", line 3, in import numpy as np ImportError: No module named numpy

To resolve this, please look into ./cron-numpy/
