 Also, GTSAM 4 introduces traits, a C++ technique that allows optimizing with non-GTSAM types. That opens the door to retiring geometric types such as Point2 and Point3 to pure Eigen types, which we will also do. A significant change which will not trigger a compile error is that zero-initializing of Point2 and Point3 will be deprecated, so please be aware that this might render functions using their default constructor incorrect.

 This is the Cython/Python wrapper around the GTSAM C++ library.
 
-# INSTALL
+## Install
 
 - if you want to build the gtsam python library for a specific python version (eg 2.7), use the `-DGTSAM_PYTHON_VERSION=2.7` option when running `cmake` otherwise the default interpreter will be used.
     - If the interpreter is inside an environment (such as an anaconda environment or virtualenv environment) then the environment should be active while building gtsam.

     - if you run `setup.py` from the build directory rather than the installation directory, the script will warn you with the message: `setup.py is being run from an unexpected location`.
       Before `make install` is run, not all the components of the package have been copied across, so running `setup.py` from the build directory would result in an incomplete package.
