Problems with installing and using scikit-learn in Anaconda

1

I installed Anaconda on 64bit windows and I also installed scikit-learn using "conda install scikit-learn". However I can't find scikit-learn when I print out all modules installed in python, and I can't import scikit-learn. So I guess the package wasn't installed correctly.

But if I do "conda update scikit-learn", it will print "all reuqested packages already installed. Packages in environment at ...\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda:" Scikit-learn 0.15.2 np19py27_0

Any suggestions on what might have gone wrong?

Thanks!

How do you make the import ? - polku
i didn't import. I launched a command window, type "python", then in "help()", call "modules" - user2502206
@user2502206, so if you type import sklearn you get an ImportError? - cel
yes, I get a syntax error. File "<ipython-input-3-0f8874ae07c9>", line 1 pip install scikit-learn ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax - user2502206
OK I figured it out. I typed "import scikit-learn" instead of "import sklearn". Thanks all! - user2502206

As mentioned in the comments, you import the scikit-learn module using:

import sklearn

If it still does not work then try to activate environment which is by default root, if you have not created separate environment while installing.

Just run from cmd : activate {env_name}

For your case, it would be : activate root then run simple python file to check scikit-learn is imported or not.

demo.py

import sklearn

See output in image below :
