This is a borderline SuperUser question. I've been using pip install <x>
to add packages to my 3.6.2 installation, from powershell on Windows 10. I'm struggling to install CVXPY. Specifically, I've already upgraded setuptools and installed visual studio c++ 14. Also, I installed C++ 2008 as suggested by a github user: https://github.com/embotech/ecos/issues/53. But, I couldn't implement her other suggestion (edit ecosmodules.c) because I dont think that file exists in the raw package I downloaded from github
Below is the traceback when I try to install a key dependency, eCos, via pip install ecos
.

On an Anaconda based Win64 Python36 installation a

Which than allowed a pip install cvxpy.
