ImportError: No module named sklearn (Python)
Question:
I wanna use scikit-learn. I have typed
pip install -U scikit-learn
pip3 install sklearn
to install it; but when i type
$ Python
>>> import sklearn
it returns
ImportError: No module named sklearn
I followed other tutorials, but it doesn’t work. Furthermore, my enviroment returns this warning:
If you have installed scikit-learn from source, please do not forget
to build the package before using it: run python setup.py install or
make in the source directory.
What is the true code to type in the terminal? I tried to type python setup.py installin the terminal but it doesn’t work
Answers:
Make sure that pip and python are the same version.
For example if you run pip for python 2.7, it will install the package only in 2.7, and if your python command point to for example python 3.3 interpreter, it will not have that package
I think you havent install sklearn, try this on your python terminal:
pip install sklearn
and proceed with your code
you dont have the package scikit-learn installed, try this if you are in a terminal linux :
sudo pip install scikit-learn
if you want to install the package within your code use
import os
os.system('sudo pip install scikit-learn')
Not only for this package but also for almost cases, please try using python3 -m pip install sklearn if pip install sklearn does not work.
Try:
pip3 install scikit-learn
this may happen that you have multiple versions of python and pip, do the following:
check your python version by typing:
python --version
for python 3.8, install sklearn using
pip3.8 install sklearn
for python 3.7, install sklearn using
pip3.7 install sklearn
for python 3.6, install sklearn using
pip3.6 install sklearn
and so on ….
Had the same issue, solved with the following steps:
check python version with command:
$ python --version
if version is python 2.7, use:
$ sudo pip2 install <package_name>
of if the python version 3 is installed, use pip3 instead of pip2
use pip install scikit-learn rather than pip install sklearn
