Module not found error in Python while trying to import pandas

Question

I am trying to import pandas on Python (Linux) but it is giving me the following error:

ModuleNotFoundError
Traceback (most recent call last) in () 1 import pandas as pd ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pandas'

Answer 1

try below code to install pandas.

sudo pip3 install pandas

Above code work for me .

Answer 2

Try installing with this:

pip install pandas

If the install fails due to lacking privilege, do this:

sudo pip install pandas

Note: You may have to use pip3 is your default Python version is 2.X

Answer 3

You should never install Python packages using sudo as it's a potential security risk. Instead, you should install packages in a virtual environment.

Here's how to create and activate a virtual environment using Python's built-in venv module.

Creating the Environment

On Linux/Mac OS

$ python3 -m venv [name of environment]

On Windows

PS> python -m venv [name of environment]

Activating the Environment

On Linux/Mac OS

$ source [name of environment]/bin/activate

On Windows

PS> [name of environment]\Scripts\activate

Once you have your virtual environment active you can install pandas using pip install pandas and import it as usual in your program.
