Simply run:

python3 -m pip install "icoco~=2.0.0"

Quick start: implement your own ICoCo class

Your ICoCo class may derive from the {class}abc.ABC class {class}icoco.problem.Problem:

from icoco import Problem

class MyICoCoProblem(Problem):

    def __init__(self):
        pass

    ...

Once all the {func}abc.abstractmethod have been implmemented, you have a functional minimal API.
