Installation issues

[rabitwhte]

HI,

I'm having installation issues. I was trying to install the package using pip and with 'setup.py' as well. I'm getting the same error each time:

Any ideas on how to deal with that?

Unfortunately building in Windows is kind of tricky and I wasn't able to provide pre-built wheels. You can try a few things:

• If you use Python 3.5, there should be a pre-built wheel available and pip install omikuji should work
• If you have Visual Studio installed (even the community edition should suffice), try pip install omikuji in "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt"
• If you have WSL installed (e.g. Ubuntu), try pip install omikuji in bash

Actually I just added wheels for Python 3.6 & 3.7 in Windows, so it should work if you try again. Closing for now, but let me know if there are other issues.
