this assumes you have installed Python 3 via Anaconda distribution.

Make Python 2 kernel available to Jupyter Notebook

open a terminal and create a new python 2 environment: conda create -n py27 python=2.7
activate the environment: linux source activate py27 or windows activate py27
install the kernel in the env: conda install notebook ipykernel
install the kernel for outside the env: ipython kernel install --user
close the env: source deactivate

Installing boost on Windows using MinGW-w64 (gcc 64-bit)

Introduction

Boost is easy when you are using headers or pre-compiled binaries for visual studio, but it can be a pain to compile from source on windows, especially when you want the 64-bit version of MinGW to use gcc/g++. This installation process should be thorough enough to simply copy and paste commands, but robust enough to install everything you need.

Note: if you need to install any of the libraries that need dependencies, see this great answer from stack overflow

Get files needed for install

Get the MinGW installer mingw-w64-install.exe from Sourceforge
Get the boost_1_68_0.zip source from Sourceforge
