setup.py looking for setuptools module

[ericmedlock]

I followed the directions in README.md but it fails at the step "python setup.py install" with error:

python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/ericmedlock/Documents/python-work/numba/numba-examples/setup.py", line 1, in
from setuptools import setup
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'

This looks like you have an environment without setuptools installed. I thought it was automatically installed in both conda and virtualenv environments, but you should be able to pip install setuptools if you don't have it.
