Windows
^^^^^^^
Windows is a little more difficult to set up, particularly if the
modules require building from source. See these links for an easier
alternative:
- `Upgrade pip on Windows `__
- `Extra packages for Windows `__
Either download separate wheel packages from the above link, or ``pip
install`` needed packages; ensure downloaded packages are 64-bit if
using 64-bit Python. In either case, the :program:`pip` tool is
required to install the packages.
