So you get an error "no module named pandas" and you aren't sure why its happening? Let's figure this out.
"no module named pandas" happens because because your current python environment cannot find the pandas library.
You haven't installed Pandas
Python can't find where you installed pandas
Different python/pandas versions
Pandas is not included in your global path
Or you might be using a virtual environment and haven't installed Pandas

This finally fixed it after two hours of going through several stages of rage, despair and laughter

Packages can be super annoying. If I were to make this video again I would start off by telling people to go to ChatGPT

Awesome Diagram! never got to wrap my head around it like that. Things have gotten down the rabbit hole trying to install ATLAS & LAPACK, this video saved me a lot a time.

[@DataIndependent]

Nice! Glad to see that it worked out. It's annoying because the problem is hidden somewhere and can be tough to find.

[@TheRohel]

awesome!! I found the pandas location by applying the 'pip show pandas' command. It was located in my venv (virtual environment) folder inside the current working directory. Thanks.

[@DataIndependent]

Ah yes that is another option. Thanks for sharing. So you installed pandas in your venv but not outside of it?

Thanks for this presentation, what did you use for preparation of those flowcharts?

[@DataIndependent]

Thanks! I used google slides for this presentation. I’ve seen others use whimsical or lucid charts.

Adding a comment on this video to get more views. This is a very helpful flow chart.

This video makes me so happy. This solved my problem exactly haha. Thanks so much dude.

[@DataIndependent]

Yes! That’s wonderful to hear and I’m glad it worked out. Any other videos you’d like to see?

[@marcorava2795]

thanks! But I have python 3.8, and atom. I try to use panda but it doesn't work. So I uninstall anaconda and then I install a new one. I check if there is panda, and told me yes.. But I can't use it again. How can I understan which wersion of anaconda I nee to install?

[@DataIndependent]

You should just be using the latest version that is listed on the anaconda website. When you're in the same location as your python script, does "pip show pandas" return something for you?

[@AnkitSharma-he9jj]

Sir while doing these things..... There is need of internet??

[@DataIndependent]

To download anything new, yes you need the Internet. But to install pandas or anaconda, no you don’t need the Internet.

Very nice explanation

Awesome, glad it worked out

[@tenisnespanol]

Hi, it doesn't work for me. I downloaded anaconda and it did not work either. I don't know what to do!

[@DataIndependent]

Can you run python via your anaconda installation? If so, what does the next step on the flow diagram show output to?

[@tenisnespanol]

@@DataIndependent Fixed it!

[@DataIndependent]

@@tenisnespanol Nice! What was the problem?

[@tenisnespanol]

@@DataIndependent Just needed to reinstall pip in the proper way

Thank you

[@DataIndependent]

Of course. What method or solution worked for you?

[@mohammadzahrawi5713]

@@DataIndependent uninstall and reinstall Anaconda lol

[@DataIndependent]

Ha that is great. Thank you and good luck!

[@shisu6870]

I use vs code, do I need anaconda to run pandas ?

[@shisu6870]

From what I watched, the only plausible reason would be that i need to update pandas or python but since I installed them like yesterday and today, I don't think it's the issue.

[@DataIndependent]

No, you don't need anaconda to run pandas. It is highly recommended however. Which step of the tree breaks when you try and debug?

[@xDenis11]

DOESN'T FUCKING WOOOORK!!!!!

[@DataIndependent]

Can you tell me about your error more? What does your output look like when you try the steps above?
