I tried to follow along with the textbook before but really struggled with the practical side - R is just another world in terms of dependency management and organisation/documentation (compared to python at least). The book had me install some version of a library that was since unsupported. So I thought I would be a nerd and do everything in python instead, but there I had other problems installing pymc. After some hours of failing I just gave up. Can anyone speak to the state of the dependencies in this edition? Has everything been updated? Versions listed? Would love to give this another shot
