Can't import Python module I just installed

I just installed PyQt5 using pip3. When I try and import it, this doesn't throw any errors:

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *

However, when I try and actually access the library:

app = QApplication(sys.argv)

I get the "Undefined Variable" error on QApplication.

I've also tried importing like this:

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication

which gives me the "No Name QApplication in Module" error.

This is frustrating me to no end, since I literally just installed the library, AND when I type in the import commands my IDE gives me predictive text, showing that the library is being detected.

How have you install it? – clubby789 Oct 23 '19 at 22:57
```pip3 install PyQt5```, and I confirmed that it is installed – vcable Oct 23 '19 at 23:02
