Pandas Module Error - No attribute Core, Module can not be found

Question

Aloha,

Windows 10, python 3.6. Originally install pandas with "python -m pip install pandas". After receiving the following error i uninstalled it by cd'ing to it's location under the python directory. I installed Anaconda, but i receive the same two errors as i did before.

the top of my file looks like:

    import pandas as pd

This is the error i receive in terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    import pandas._libs.window as _window

if i open python and then call pandas it returns the error below sometimes, other times the error above.

AttributeError: module 'pandas' has no attribute 'core'

additionally, pip list returns pandas as a module present. So i know it is there, i think it is just a bad installation or something is wrong with pandas itself stopping it from running.

PS C:\Users\sdr-research> python -m pip list
