Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by providing explicit instructions and command-line examples only for Windows environments (e.g., using Windows 64-bit machine and Windows-style pip invocation), while omitting equivalent Linux or cross-platform instructions. There are no Linux or macOS examples or notes, and Windows tools and paths are mentioned exclusively.
Recommendations:
  • Include Linux/macOS equivalents for all command-line instructions, such as pip usage and file paths.
  • Provide cross-platform guidance or clarify when steps are Windows-specific.
  • Add a note or section addressing how to perform the same tasks on Linux (e.g., using 'pip download' on Linux/Mac, and where to find the downloaded files).
  • Avoid using only Windows-style paths (e.g., C:\Python27\Scripts\pip2.7.exe); instead, show both Windows and Unix-style commands.
  • Mention any platform-specific requirements or differences explicitly to help non-Windows users.
