Special Note from Author:
[ updated on: 2025/01/07 ]
Given the ever changing landscape of software development, the recent jump from Numpy 1.x to 2.x would require significant modifications to BayesFit to keep up-to-date with major changes that were implemented.
Unfortunately, provided this project is not funded, such ongoing development is simply not practical. Therefore, modifications have been made to the requirements file to provide an upper limit to the Numpy version supported by BayesFit.
What this means is to continue to utilize BayesFit without issue, simply create a virtual environment with module versions specified under requirements.txt via pip install -r requirements.txt, and install BayesFit within that environment.
This also means BayesFit will be frozen at this version number (v2.4.1). Thank you for your continued support, and I hope this software continues to help others in providing a simple Bayesian Curve Fitting Tool.
Kind Regards, 🌳 M 🌳

Packages required (versions specified in requirements.txt): Numpy Matplotlib Scipy
To install required packages if the versions are out of date, or not installed in your working environment, first download the requirements.txt file in this repository. Then navigate to the directory that contains the downloaded text file using the command-prompt. Then type:
pip install -r requirements.txt
RECOMMENDED: BayesFit and required packages may be installed from the Python Package Index using pip.
pip install bayesfit
Alternatively, if required packages are already installed on your system, BayesFit can be installed via:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/slugocm/bayesfit.git cd bayesfit python setup.py install
Simply type:
pip install bayesfit -U
