I keep running into errors when I try 'pip install fbprophet' specifically it seems that the setup.py keep throwing the error does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm not sure the cause of your specific issue, but I have heard of trouble installing fbprophet. Try looking at the documentation. You need to install pystan first which requires a C++ compiler such as mingw for Windows.

According to the documentation, fbprophet should be installable with both pip and conda. Try using conda if pip is failing and make sure to install all the requirements.
