I am trying to run the following code -

import seaborn as sns
df = sns.load_dataset('iris')

but am getting the following error -

URLError: 

Note - The last line is copy pasted as it is, there is nothing written after "URLError:"

I am using Python 3.8.10 and Jupyter Notebook in VSCode.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling seaborn, but it didn't help.

I tried the solution presented on this website but it didn't help either.

I have stable internet connection and I checked my firewall settings, nothing seems to be blocking python from getting internet connection. I can't figure out what exactly is the problem here.

Kindly help me out. Thank You.

Edit - it works fine when I switch to Python 3.10.6.
