For optimal performance, use Python 3, 64 bit.
The package was originally written in Python 2 and was adapted to Python 3.
Python 2 is supported through the use of the future module, but full support is not prioritized in the further development, especially since the End-of-Life of Python 2 in 2020.
32 bit versions of Python work, but especially for large data and on Windows, out-of-memory problems may occur.

Before installation, make sure that pip and git are installed on your system and usable from the command line.
To install, run:
    >>> pip install -r requirements.txt
    >>> python setup.py develop --user
If python 2 is the standard python version of your system, and you want to install under python 3:
    >>> pip3 install -r requirements.txt
    >>> python3 setup.py develop --user

To build documentation with sphinx, you have to install sphinx on your computer:
e.g. 
Debian based Linux:
    >>> sudo apt-get install python-sphinx
Redhat based Linux(as root):
    >>> yum install install python-sphinx

Than you can execute the makefile in ./doc, for example in html output format:
    >>> cd doc
    >>> make html
The result will be in ./doc/build/
