Same story for install xgboost

Solution

  • Did you meant to install shapely (https://pypi.org/project/Shapely/)? In python you can install shapely by doing pip install shapely

    For windows shapley can be installed by downloading .whl from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#shapely and do

    pip install <name of whl file>

    or if you are using anaconda you can use conda-forge to get shapely

    conda config --add channels conda-forge conda install shapely

    To install xgboost see http://xgboost.readthedocs.io/en/latest/python/python_intro.html For this you might need gcc (c/c++ compiler) or equivalent Microsoft alternative.

    For xgboost with conda you can see this stackoverflow.com/questions/35139108/… or simply do conda install py-xgboost
