I am trying to test out tensorflow object detection. Because tensorflow requires python3.6 and my system came with python3.7.1 installed by default I built python3.6.7 from source. I then created a venv with python3.6.7 and install all my dependencies but I end up getting an error when trying to import matplotlib and get the error of:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_tkinter'
I looked online and found out that I needed to install tk with
pacman -S tk
And I still get the same error, but when I go to python3.7.1 it import sucessfully. I think that it is trying to install it for python3.7.1 and not python3.6.7. I know that on ubuntu people can do
sudo apt-get install python3-tk
How would this be accomplished on arch?
Found my problem, I created venv before installing tk so it was still missing it. I just recreated the virtual environment.
The actual answer is that tensorflow does not require python 3.6 -- Arch Linux provides a tensorflow package that has been patched to build against python 3.7, and you should use that instead. If you build your own python and tensorflow, then you run the risk of messing up part or all of the installation (in this case, failing to get tkinter correctly set up).
The first thing you should always do is check if the software you want is already available in the distribution repositories -- if it is, then the package is definitely intended to work with the ecosystem provided by those distribution repositories.
In this case, you can see that the tensorflow package has a number of patches to fix build failures on python 3.7: https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/tensorflow&id=ef98a003237250ba0853990da1742ee27c0e554d#n37

I have Python3.5 and Python3.6 installed on Ubuntu 16.04. I have installed pip for 3.6 and am using 3.6 for development. I tried to install a package (wordcloud) in 3.6 and it appeared to install correctly but I get the following error message:

I am not sure what is happening but, python3 is a symbolic link to python3.5 yet when I execute the code, I am calling it in python3.6. Everything looks fine except when it calls the PIL package. PIL is actually installed in 3.6, but not 3.5.
I don't understand why it switches from:
/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages
to:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages
Why does this happen and how do I resolve this situation?
Trusty offers a 3.5 setup, and that won't change. It may be possible to have the two coexist in the way you suggest, but you are finding it challenging. Recommend deleting your python3.6. (Or switching to an ubuntu based on 3.6.)
Install miniconda3, and use that to provide python3.6, PIL, and friends. Very clean. You'll be glad you did.
I'm trying to call a function from the cluster module, like so:
import sklearn
db = sklearn.cluster.DBSCAN()
and I get the following error:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'cluster'
Tab-completing in IPython, I seem to have access to the base, clone, externals, re, setup_module, sys, and warning modules. Nothing else, though others (including cluster) are in the sklearn directory.
Following pbu's advice below and using
from sklearn import cluster
I get:

I'm using Python 3.4 on Windows, scikit-learn 0.16.1.
You probably don't use Numpy+MKL, but only Numpy.
I had the same problem and reinstalling Numpy with MKL
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall "numpy‑1.16.3+mkl‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl"
fixed it.
Note: update the file to the latest version, possibly 64bit - see the list of available Windows binaries
Problem was with scipy/numpy install. I'd been using the (normally excellent!) unofficial installers from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/. Uninstall/re-install from there made no difference, but installing with the official installers (linked from http://www.scipy.org/install.html) did the trick.
I am using anaconda got the same error as the OP, when loading Orange, or PlotNine.
I can't recall when this start to happen.
Tracing the dependency of Anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\scipy\special\_ufuncs.cp36-win32.pyd, libifcoremd.dll and libmmd.dll are missing in DependencyWalk. Searching them in anaconda root directry, they are located in both ICC_RT and one version of MKL package.
Adding Anaconda3\pkgs\mkl-2017.0.3-0\Library\bin to PATH, seems to fix SciPy and NumPy related DLL load failure, the above package starts to work again.
I still don't know how to fix this properly. Apparently the downside is that the MKL package could be updated and versions may change so does the path. In this aspect Its equally inconvenient as adding a non-managed package.
Reinstalling ICC_RT fixed the issue for me, libmmd.dll and the related dlls are automatically copied into anaconda3/library/bin afterwards, which is automatically added into PATH by activate command. All previous numpy/scipy related cant load DLL errors are gone now.
From the error log, it shows that scipy module is the most recent module fails to import

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
I have the same error that show the same log, the problem'd gone when I uninstall/install scipy:
pip uninstall scipy
pip install scipy
Place this line on top of the python file
from sklearn import cluster
That should do it :))
For me what fixed it were these commands:
pip uninstall sklearn
pip uninstall scikit-learn
pip uninstall scipy
pip install scipy
pip install scikit-learnhere
I had the same issue and solved it by installing/updating the mkl package:
conda install mkl
or
pip install mkl
Just for full information, this also downgraded the following packages:
The following packages will be UPDATED:
mkl: 2017.0.4-h6d528fc_0 defaults --> 2018.0.3-1 defaults
The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
numpy: 1.11.3-py34_0 defaults --> 1.10.1-py34_0 defaults
pandas: 0.19.2-np111py34_1 defaults --> 0.18.1-np110py34_0 defaults
scikit-learn: 0.18.1-np111py34_1 defaults --> 0.17-np110py34_1 defaults
scipy: 0.19.1-np111py34_0 defaults --> 0.16.0-np110py34_0 defaults
I struggled trying to figure this one out; tried to download and install the (unofficial) Numpy+MKL library from the website (risky/tedious?).
Ultimately found success by:
Login to command prompt using admin rights; how to here: https://superuser.com/questions/968214/open-cmd-as-admin-with-windowsr-shortcut
Uninstall existing/tangled version of Scipy & Numpy
pip uninstall scipy
pip uninstall numpy
Fresh install Scipy & Numpy
pip install scipy
pip install numpy
Run Jupyter notebook; it worked for me.
The message ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found
informs that there is failure to identify and source the required DLL(s) to use the scikit-learn library; a fresh install of scipy/numpy probably enables a better routing of DLL connections called from Jupyter notebook code(s).
download microsoft visual c++ distribution

vc_redist.x64.exe
install and run this .exe file in your computer.. the DLL import module error will not appear after this
now it will work fine enjoy :)
From within a virtual environment, trying to load a script which uses matplotlib's GTKAgg backend, I fail with the following traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise ImportError("Gtk* backend requires pygtk to be installed.")
ImportError: Gtk* backend requires pygtk to be installed.
The code which I ran in order to produce that ImportError is as follows:
import matplotlib as mpl
mpl.use('GTKAgg')
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
When running the very same code after deactivating my virtual environment, everything goes well.
I assumed this may be due to version differences; indeed, such differences exist on my machine. However, the version in the virtual environment is newer (1.2.0 versus 1.1.1rc), so I am not expecting less support.
In case it is not clear: my question is how to allow importing pyplot with GTKAgg backend on a new version of matplotlib, or at least an attempt to understand the reasons for this import failure.
You probably created your virtual evn by something like:
$ virtualenv ~/.virtualenvs/my_env
by default this can see none of your system-installed packages (including pygtk) so when you try to run mpl it rightly complains that you do not have pygtk installed because (with in the context of the virtualenv) you do not.
You can either build and install pygtk within your virtualenv or you can use
$ virtualenv --system-site-packages ~/.virtualenvs/my_env
(doc) which will make your virtualenv inherit from your global packages.
I'm not sure if you're on Ubuntu, but to solve this I had to install matplotlib from source to get this to work. The key instructions (from http://www.pyimagesearch.com/2015/08/24/resolved-matplotlib-figures-not-showing-up-or-displaying/) are:
$ workon plotting
$ pip uninstall matplotlib
$ git clone https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib.git
$ cd matplotlib
$ python setup.py install
Changing backends and using --system-site-packages didn't work for me.
I have such imports and code:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import statsmodels.formula.api as sm
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
#Read the data from pydatasets repo using Pandas
url = './file.csv'
white_side = pd.read_csv(url)
#Fitting the model
model = sm.ols(formula='budget ~ article_size',
data=white_side,
subset=white_side['producer'] == "Peter Jackson")
fitted = model.fit()
print fitted.summary()
After execution of this code I have such errors:

I`m using openSUSE and pycharm community edition latest version with installed pandas, numpy, etc
How can i fix this problem?
I've seen this before, also on openSUSE (12.3). The fix is to edit the default matplotlibrc file.
Here's how you find where the default matplotlibrc file lives, and where it lives on my machine:
>>> import matplotlib
>>> matplotlib.matplotlib_fname()
'/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc'
The backend setting is the first configuration option in this file. Change it from TkAgg to Agg, or to some other backend you have installed on your system. The comments in the matplotlibrc file list all backends supported by matplotlib.
The backend specified in this file is only the default; you can still change it at runtime by adding the following two lines, before any other matplotlib import:
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use("Agg") # or whichever backend you wish to use
I use openSuse 13.1 and had the same error "ImportError: No module named backend_tkagg".
I solved it by using this suggestion: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/416182-Python-matplolib.
I've installed the python-matplotlib-tk package, and now it is working just fine.
E.g. you can use: zypper install python-matplotlib-tk
I tried various solutions, only this works for me:
sudo pip install matplotlib --upgrade
I was able to fix this by putting
import matplotlib.backends.backend_tkagg
above
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Note, I received the same error while trying to run an executable generated using Py2exe.
Here is what I got when I ran TheProgram.exe from the command prompt:

I add my answer for those who might encounter this problem using CARLA Simulator.
Using Python 3.6, and installing matplotlib v 2.2.5 solved this problem for me.
To remove matplotlib and install the right version you can run
pip uninstall -r requirements.txt
Then add matplotlib==2.2.5 to the requirement file and run pip install -r requirements.txt --user to install the correct versions.
If you are missing the requirements.txt file, here you are
Pillow>=3.1.2
numpy>=1.14.5
protobuf>=3.6.0
pygame>=1.9.4
matplotlib==2.2.5
future>=0.16.0
scipy>=0.17.0
In case you have different python versions and you would like to use a specific python version using py -<version> will use the right python version.
WARNING: Changing Path variable of the current Python version might be dangerous and specially for linux users it might cause that you can not open the terminal again. This is because different Python versions might not be compatible with the current pip version you are using. If it is too late for you and you already messed up with your terminal you can visit This tutorial to fix your issue.
After all of the fixes you might still get this error:
TypeError: blit() got an unexpected keyword argument 'colormode'
So you might want to edit the live_plotter.py file and remove colormode attribute from all the lines which are passing it to blit() method.
I faced this issue before, I solved it by using an old version of matplotlib which is version 3.0.0
if you don't have this version try pip install matplotlib==3.0.0
hope this was helpful!
I faced this issue while doing live plotting using the 2.2.2 version. Tried the following:
pip install matplotlib==3.0.0 --user
It's still an older version but it worked.
I solved the problem by setting the variable before starting python
export MPLBACKEND=Agg; python3
Taken from here.

I installed python 2.6.6 from the source files. I am really confused!!
How should I install tkinter?
I am running Xubuntu 13.10. You can see the different versions of python already installed in the below:
How can I remove python2.6.6? I tried to remove all files and folders related to python2.6. Now when I run python, it still loads python 2.6.6 I really have no idea what to do!! I tried to follow the instructions here and here to uninstall it but it did not work, that's why I deleted all the files and folders manually.
Type the following in your terminal:
sudo apt-get install python-tk
Install python3-tk package if you need Tkinter functionality in the 3rd version of python.
