Following the instructions for the Uncertainty Quantification course, and trying to install, either with pip or by git clone and python setup.py install, installation fails because the file C:\Users\Root\Anaconda3\envs\uq-course\libs\libpython27.a cannot be found.
An inspection of the above folder revealed that there is a file libpython27.dll.a. Renaming it accordingly, as well as the file libmsvcr90.dll.a in the same directory, resolved the issue.
Just FYI (and thanks for making the course available)
