# QuantEcon.py
A high performance, open source Python code library for economics
```python
from quantecon.markov import DiscreteDP
aiyagari_ddp = DiscreteDP(R, Q, beta)
results = aiyagari_ddp.solve(method='policy_iteration')
```

[](https://quanteconpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)
[](https://pypi.org/project/quantecon/)
[](https://pypi.org/project/quantecon/)
## Installation
Before installing `quantecon` we recommend you install the [Anaconda](https://www.anaconda.com/download/) Python distribution, which includes a full suite of scientific python tools.
Next you can install quantecon by opening a terminal prompt and typing
pip install quantecon
or using conda-forge by typing
conda install -c conda-forge quantecon
## Usage
Once `quantecon` has been installed you should be able to import it as follows:
```python
import quantecon as qe
```
You can check the version by running
```python
print(qe.__version__)
```
If your version is below what’s available on [PyPI](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/quantecon/) then it is time to upgrade. This can be done by running
pip install --upgrade quantecon
## Examples and Sample Code
Many examples of QuantEcon.py in action can be found at [Quantitative Economics](https://lectures.quantecon.org/). See also the
* [Documentation](https://quanteconpy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/)
* [Notebook gallery](https://notes.quantecon.org)
QuantEcon.py is supported financially by the [Alfred P. Sloan Foundation](http://www.sloan.org/) and is part of the [QuantEcon organization](https://quantecon.org).
## Downloading the `quantecon` Repository
An alternative is to download the sourcecode of the `quantecon` package and install it manually from [the github repository](https://github.com/QuantEcon/QuantEcon.py/). For example, if you have git installed type
git clone https://github.com/QuantEcon/QuantEcon.py
Once you have downloaded the source files then the package can be installed by running
pip install flit
flit install
