+### ⚠️ Having Installation or Import Issues?
+
+**Error:** `ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import`
+
+**Most likely cause:** NumPy version mismatch (you have NumPy 1.x, but need 2.x)
+
+**Quick Fix** (copy-paste these commands):
+```bash
+# Check your NumPy version first
+python -c "import numpy; print(f'NumPy: {numpy.__version__}')"
+
+# If you see 1.x.x, upgrade to 2.x:
+pip install --upgrade "numpy>=2.0.0"
+pip uninstall sequenzo -y
+pip install --no-cache-dir sequenzo
+```
+
+📖 **Still having issues?** 
+1. Run our diagnostic tool to identify the problem:
+   ```bash
+   curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Liang-Team/Sequenzo/main/diagnose.py
+   python diagnose.py
+   ```
+2. See our detailed guides:
+   - **[QUICK_FIX.md](QUICK_FIX.md)** - Simple step-by-step solutions

+   - **[docs/WHY_IMPORT_FAILS.md](docs/WHY_IMPORT_FAILS.md)** - Technical explanation
+
+### Optional R Integration
+
+Sequenzo now checks the system environment variables before running ward.D hierarchical clustering.
+
+If R is missing, a relevant prompt will be displayed along with specific installation instructions. If `fastcluster` is missing, Sequenzo will automatically download `fastcluster`.
+
+Before automatically downloading `fastcluster`, Sequenzo checks whether R is available; if R is not installed, sequenzo will not automatically download fastcluster.
+
+Sequenzo supports advanced Ward clustering methods that require R integration. If you need to use the `ward_d` clustering method, install with R support:
+
+```
+pip install sequenzo[r]
+```
+
+This will install the optional `rpy2` dependency, which provides Python-R interoperability. Note that R must also be installed on your system for `rpy2` to work.
+
