DependenciesΒΆ

These are the excellent software packages which have made this project possible. If you are using Ubuntu then you can install the correct versions of each of required software packages with something like:

aptitude install python python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib python-biopython ipython

Alternatively you could try installing Anaconda. This has been tested with Polyphony on a Mac and worked well. Use the following to install Biopython. Everything else is installed by default:

conda install biopython
