ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sklearn'

Solution 1:

You can just use pip for installing packages, even when you are using anaconda:

pip install -U scikit-learn scipy matplotlib

This should work for installing the package.

And for Python 3.x just use pip3:

pip3 install -U scikit-learn scipy matplotlib

Brief Introduction

When using Anaconda, one needs to be aware of the environment that one is working.

Then, in Anaconda Prompt (base) one needs to use the following code:

conda $command -n $ENVIRONMENT_NAME $IDE/package/module

$command - Command that I intend to use (consult documentation for general commands)

$ENVIRONMENT NAME - The name of your environment (if one is working in the root, conda $command $IDE/package/module is enough)

$IDE/package/module - The name of the IDE or package or module

Solution

If one wants to install it in the root and one follows the requirements - (Python (>= 2.7 or >= 3.4), NumPy (>= 1.8.2), SciPy (>= 0.13.3).) - the following will solve the problem:

conda install scikit-learn

Let's say that one is working in the environment with the name ML.

Then the following will solve one's problem:

conda install -n ML scikit-learn

Note: If one needs to install/update packages, the logic is the same as mentioned in the introduction. If you need more information on Anaconda Packages, check the documentation.

If the above doesn't work, on Anaconda Prompt one can also use pip (here's how to pip install scikit-learn) so the following may help

pip install scikit-learn

Solution 3:

If you are using Ubuntu 18.04 or higher with python3.xxx then try this command

$ sudo apt install python3-sklearn 

then try your command. hope it will work

Solution 4:

I did the following:

import sys
!{sys.executable} -m pip install sklearn
