Hello,
I tried to install zipline,
use this method:
$ pip install numpy
$ pip install cython
$ pip install git+https://github.com/quantopian/zipline.gitAnd then I got this error:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 72: ordinal not in range(128)
Could anyone help me?
I am using ubuntu 14.04 and python 2.7.6.
Try to use pip install zipline instead of pip install git+https://github.com/quantopian/zipline.git
This is the way it's recommended here: http://www.zipline.io/install.html
Thanks so much for your reply.
Actually I also tried to install using
pip install zipline But it gives me this error:
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

Could you please tell me how I can solve this?
