HDDM installation with anaconda
anaconda create -n HDDM python=2.7.18
conda install -c pymc hddm
conda install qtawesome=0.7.3
(or: conda install qtawesome=0.7.3 –channel conda-forge)
conda install spyder seaborn
(or: conda install spyder=3.3.0)

or see here: https://crackedbassoon.com/writing/ddm-figure

If you have issues with spyder, alternatively use iPython:
ipython –matplotlib
from matplotlib import pyplot as pl
pl.figure()
