how to import modules like matplotlab in PyCharm

Question

import random
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

alphabet = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"

freq = {c: random.randint(1, 100) for c in alphabet if random.randint(1, 10) > 2}
print(len(freq))
print(freq)

plt.bar(range(len(freq)), freq.values(), align='center')
plt.xticks(range(len(freq)), freq.keys())
plt.show()

I received a code which uses matplotlib, I already installed it like here in console (in Git Bash) and searched for matplotlib under settings - modules, but found just two other and installed them (aliasimports/live coding in python). I still become this error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'matplotlib'

in your pycharm output console, you can see the python location(`C:\some\path\Scripts\python.exe`), now, run `the python.full.path.exe -m pip install matplotlib` — Lei Yang, Jul 05 '21 at 15:02
when I try your suggestion, I see that: "Requirement already satisfied" — Mihail Savvateev, Jul 05 '21 at 15:09
@LeiYang the solution by Ahmed helped me, still many thanks for your support! — Mihail Savvateev, Jul 05 '21 at 15:25

In Pycharm File -> View -> Tools Windows -> Python packages It will list all installed packages, search for Matplotlib and install it.

If you are running in terminal:

python -m pip install matplotlib

If on unix: locate your python, which python

python_path/bin/python -m pip install matplotlib

If you are using python2, without pip. Install it

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

After saving above file, run

python get-pip.py

Now run pip install command.

If your script is using shebang, do include this line at top of your file

#!/path/to/your/path/binary

The first sentence already helped me, thanks! A little edited path: "Pycharm -> View -> Tool Windows -> Python packages: It will list all installed packages, search for Matplotlib and install it" — Mihail Savvateev, Jul 05 '21 at 15:23
