I want to use pygames mouse functions, but i cant get it to work. In terminal, i used pip install pygame. It said that the module was already installed. I decided to import pygame in the shell to test it. but it returned

Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/Users/GAMEKNIGHT7/Desktop/genius 
hour/chineseCheckersAI.py", line 13, in <module>
    import pygame
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pygame'

Do you have 2 versions of Python? – Santosh Kumar Nov 11 '18 at 03:20

Run python --version in the terminal, to see if your running 2 versions of python, python 3.7 and python ?.? – MilkyWay90 Nov 11 '18 at 04:15
What is the output of import sys; print(sys.path); in your python terminal and is the package installed to any directory listed in this output? – quant Nov 11 '18 at 06:18
