How to install library on my computer?

To install the library go to GitHub repository and clone it to your local machine. You can either manually download the .zip file or if you have GitHub installed you can clone the repository via the app. This will allow you to update the project once new changes are introduced. Next, go to the MS Excel spreadsheet and import downloaded modules. Save the workbook as PERSONAL.XLSB under C:/Users/User Name/AppData/Microsoft/Excel/XLSTART.
