Installing Sequenzo

If you haven't installed Python, please follow Yuqi's tutorial about how to set up Python and your virtual environment.

Once Python is installed, we highly recommend using PyCharm as your IDE (Integrated Development Environment — the place where you open your folder and files to work with Python), rather than Visual Studio. PyCharm has excellent built-in support for managing virtual environments, making your workflow much easier and more reliable if you are a beginner.

In PyCharm, please make sure to select a virtual environment using Python 3.9, 3.10, or 3.11 as these versions are fully supported by sequenzo.

Then, you can open the built-in terminal by clicking the Terminal icon in the left sidebar (usually near the bottom). It looks like a small command-line window icon.

Once it’s open, type the following to install sequenzo:

pip install sequenzo

If you have some issues with the installation, it might because you have both Python 2 and Python 3 installed on your computer. In this case, you can try to use pip3 instead of pip to install the package.

pip3 install sequenzo
