This is the public repository for MiSTree, a python package for constructing and analysing minimum spanning trees.

## Dependencies

MiSTree was tested and built using Python 2.7 and has been subsequently tested on Python 3.5 and 3.7.

You will need the following python modules:

• numpy

• matplotlib

• scipy

• scikit-learn

• f2py (should be installed with numpy)

If f2py cannot find a gcc compiler then the fortran modules will not compile. If you have this issue and are using an anaconda distribution of python then you should be able to install gcc directly using the commands:

conda install -c anaconda gcc

## Basic setup

To use MiSTree you must first download or clone this repository and then run:

python setup.py

This will compile a set of fortran files. Assuming they have compiled correctly (it will tell you) you can then add the directory to your python paths.

If you’re using a mac, you would need to add this to your .bash_profile file (a hidden file located in your home folder):

export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:<path/to/mistree>

Then run source .bash_profile.

You should now be able to import the module:

import mistree as mist
