I was hoping to try but my university clusters are so old.

What do I need to update and how?

I don't have sudo. I only have write access to /home/my_username/

Thanks!

pip install -e ".[dev]"

What version of gcc is installed on the machine? You can find this by running gcc --version and posting the output here

The version is 4.8.5

-bash-4.2$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-44)

Unfortunately Bean Machine will not compile with that version of gcc, although you may have better luck with the library in Google Colab at any rate. Check out the tutorials at https://beanmachine.org/docs/overview/tutorials/Coin_flipping/CoinFlipping/ and click on the Colab link at the top of the page of any tutorial. Colab will install Bean Machine correctly, and you will see how to use the library interactively there.

In addition to what @ndmlny-qs says, even though you can't build Bean Machine from source with your gcc version, you should be able to install prebuilt Bean Machine wheels from PyPI just fine with pip install beanmachine
