Download and installation
Requirements
MARIO has been tested on macOS and Windows.
To run MARIO, a couple of things are needed:
Being in love with Input-Output :-)
The Python programming language, version 3.7 or higher
A number of Python adds-on packages
For some functionalities a solver may needed (optional)
MARIO software itself
Recommended installation method
The easiest way to make MARIO software working is to use the free conda package manager which can install the current and future MARIO depencies in an easy and user friendly way.
To get conda, download and install “Anaconda Distribution” . Between differnet options for running python codes, we strongly suggest, Spyder, which is a free and open source scientific environment written in Python, for Python, and designed by and for scientists, engineers and data analysts.
You can install mario using pip or from source code. It is suggested to create a new environment by running the following command in the anaconda prompt
conda create -n mario python=3.8
If you create a new environment for mario, to use it, you need to activate the mario environment each time by writing the following line in Anaconda Prompt
conda activate mario
Now you can use pip to install mario on your environment as follow:
pip install mariopy
You can also install from the source code!
