I removed stdc++ from setup.py and it compiled and worked

        Extension("glove.corpus_cython", [glove_corpus],
                  language='C++',
                  libraries=[],
                  extra_link_args=compile_args,
                  extra_compile_args=compile_args)]

I am able to install the Glove by following comment of @huan086

Now, I am getting an ImportError


from glove import Glove
importerror: No module named corpus_cython

Any idea how to fix it?
