[Numpy-discussion] Beginner Help: Generating HTML using Sphinx

[Sanchi Vaishnavi]

Hi Sebastian,

Thank you, it works perfectly now.
I wrongly assumed that I'd installed the latest version.

As it happens, conda currently ships the version 1.7.4 of sphinx, as
against the latest version 2.0.0.
I did this: pip install -U sphinx

Best,

Sanchi
