How to avoid statsmodels installation errors on windows ?

It has been a few days I've been searching a way to install statsmodel. I want to use ggplot library.

It dependencies are stated in the web site;

  1. matplotlib
  2. pandas
  3. scipy
  4. numpy
  5. statsmodels

matplotlib, pandas, scipy and numpy are successfully installed in my computer.

Then I type pip install --upgrade --no-deps statsmodels on command prompt and after a while I get the following error;

Exception: Cython-generated file 'statsmodels/nonparametric/linbin.c' not found. Cython is required to compile statsmodels from a development branch. Please install Cython or download a source release of statsmodels.

I've installed the cython using pip with the following command;

pip install cython

I've tried installing and once again and I get the same error. Then I've cloned the source code to my computer from github with the following command; 

git clone git://github.com/statsmodels/statsmodels.git

I've navigated to the installation path and tried installing from setup.py file;

python setup.py install

From this installation I get the following error ;

File "C:\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\encodings\cp1254.py", line 23, in decode return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0] UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x8d in position 330: character maps to

Does anyone have an idea to over come this problem ?

Python Version : 3.5.2

matplotlib version : 2.0.2

scipy version : 1.0.0

numpy version : 1.14.0

pandas version : 0.22.0

I installed statsmodels from the page "Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages" : www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs in windows 10.
