Facing error messages when importing sklearn in python i.d
Question:
I get an error when importing sklearn in python 3.9.
I am using I.D.L.E. in Windows.
Installed it using cmd command: pip install -U scikit-learn
as given in https://scikit-learn.org/stable/install.html
The received error message is:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Please help.
Answers:
Since the required file _qhull.yp39-win_amd64.pyd is there, it must be a problem with the dependencies this DLL file has and can’t find on your computer.
Use a dependency walker like this one to find out what is missing on your system and see that you get those missing pieces installed.
Quite likely you are missing some of the Microsoft Redistributable Visual Studio Files.
Apparently my scipy got corrupted somehow. Uninstalling and re-installing it fixed the problem. Thanks everyone who took their time and effort to help though.
