HI i'm trying to import pymc3 after pip installing it from the command line within the library where Python.exe sits in. (i.e. >>python -m pip install pymc3). after checking the Lib/Site-Packages library, there's no pymc3, but there is a theanos package installed though. i've looked everywhere for the pymc3 package but can't find it. i've tried installing pymc4 and same thing happens. any idea why?
You should be able to run pip straight for command line.
IE: the command is "pip install pymc3"
Then you would need to import it.
Your issue might also be that you recently installed python and have pip3 installed and not pip. You can check if pip vs pip3 is installed with pip --version and pip3 --version.
Whichever one of those responds with some form of pip XX.X.X from /.... would be the command you need to run.
If you do have pip3 then the command to run from the command line would be "pip3 install pymc3"
Are you able to do
import pymc3
in a Python script? If so, you can find out where it's installed with
print(pymc3.__file__)
so I just uninstalled a wrong version of python 3.8 and downloaded python 3.7.4
Now I'm trying to install packages using the command pip install X and get the following error.
C:\Users\User>pip install cv2
Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"c:\users\user\appdata\local\programs\python\python38-32\python.exe" "C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\Scripts\pip.exe" install cv2': The system cannot find the file specified.
clearly it is still trying to use the old version of python 3.8 even though I have uninstalled it and reinstalled pip several times.
Any idea on why its trying to look for this old path? and how can I change the default path it is using?
(btw this is just a matter of convenience because as of the moment if I use the command python -m pip install X it does seem to work)
try command python -m pip install --upgrade pip
Delete and clear environment config and install again...
When I try to pip install scikit-learn my IDE(PyCharm) shows an error "No module named 'Cython'"
And also with matplotlib it says could not find suitabe distribution for Requirement.parse('numpy>=1.11')
I am a beginner and I don't know how to tackle this can someone please help ?
Run first:
pip install Cython
then install scikit-learn:
pip install -U scikit-learn
Edit:
According to the pip website (https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing), I should already have pip installed with my Python version 2.9.7, but I assumed that I don't because of the error message.
I then attempted to install pip by downloading get-pip.py. It was successful but I got the messages:
Found existing installation: pip 1.3.1
Uninstalling pip-1.3.1:
Successfully uninstalled pip-1.3.1
Successfully installed pip-8.1.1 wheel-0.29.0
So it seems I did have a version of pip, so I'm not sure why I was getting the error message described in my original post.
But when I tried to then pip install jupyter, I just get:
-bash: pip: command not found
again. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong please?
I need to install iPython Notebook. I already have Python (version 2.7.9) installed on my Macbook, running OS X (version 10.7.5).
After some initial investigation, I saw somebody say that I could just run:
pip install "ipython[notebook]"
When I did this however, I got:
-bash: pip: command not found
So do I have to install pip first? And then use pip to install the Notebook? I'm out of my depth and a little confused!
Okay so my problem was that pip was installed, but in a location that was not included in my $PATH variable.
One of the answers here is relevant.
There are already two posts on stack overflow on this topic; however, none of them have resolved or addressed my specific situation.
I have installed pytest via pip install pytest. I am able to import the library in Python as well.
The problem is that when I try to use the py.test command in Terminal, I get py.test: command not found.
Does anyone have any insight as to why I am not able to use the command in the terminal?
EDIT: It even shows up as an installed package:
$ pip list
cycler (0.9.0)
matplotlib (1.5.1)
numpy (1.10.1)
pip (8.1.0)
py (1.4.31)
pyparsing (2.0.7)
pytest (2.9.0)
python-dateutil (2.4.2)
pytz (2015.7)
scipy (0.17.0)
setuptools (7.0)
six (1.10.0)
tensorflow (0.5.0)
vboxapi (1.0)
wheel (0.26.0)
using python -m pytest will work for you.
Or if you using virtual environment and installed pytest on virtualenv you should then run py.test alongside your virtual environment.

I already had the latest version of pytest on macOS with Homebrew-installed Python 2.7 and this fixed it:
pip uninstall pytest
pip install pytest
Are you on a mac with homebrew by any chance?
I had the same issue and it basically came down to permissions/conflict with the mac os base installed python. pip install would not install or link stuff into /usr/local/bin (it happened with both virtualenv and pytest).
I uninstalled python 2.7 completely with homebrew (brew uninstall python).
Next, I reinstalled python with homebrew to fix pip (it was not a symlink in /usr/local/bin/pip where it should have been linked to Cellar) -- brew install python
Then I uninstalled pip with sudo -- sudo python -m pip uninstall pip to remove the pip owned by root
Now I uninstalled and reinstalled python with homebrew again to reinstall pip with the correct permissions brew uninstall python && brew install python
Next I fixed the python symlinks brew link python
Finally, pip install pytest worked! (and so did pip install virtualenv)
I found the information in the chosen answer from this post very helpful:

If you're not on a mac, sorry for the noise...
I may be late, but while exploring this I noticed that this can be because the Scripts folder for python is not present in the PATH.
For me this is my scripts folder:
C:\Python38\Scripts\
If the path is a problem then running pip install pytest should actually you give you the warning with the path it was added to.
This should be present in the path. If on windows, edit the environment variables and this location to the PATH.
For me the path was incorrect because of an improper installation of python
I had the same issue. I had pytest v2.8.3 installed and the binary was on my path but under the name py.test. Upgrading to v3.0.3 added the regular pytest executable to the path.
I had the same problem. I have changed the Python installed folder permission to full access. And then uninstalled the pytest and installed again.
pip uninstall pytest
In my case, I had a similar issue in ubuntu 20.04. The below solution worked for me.
Cause: Shell remembers the previous version or previously used Path, hence we need to force the shell to 'forget' the old location - with -r
hash -r pytest
Then execute the tests it should work fine.
For MAC users:
Download python universal installer for mac:
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.5/python-3.10.5-macos11.pkg
Then try to install pytest module in terminal using this command:
pip install pytest
Hope this will fix the issue. Thanks!
use the command, pip install -U pytest and install it in your cmd prompt, it will solve the issueenter image description here
I used macbook air m2, and the way I deal with this problem is:
Command in terminal in macbook:
which pytest
/opt/anaconda3/bin/pytest -> my terminal shows this
Then you got the path of pytest, in the "Command", before "pytest", add its path and following with the path of python file you wanna test.
/opt/anaconda3/bin/pytest /Users/cindyng/Desktop/Testing.py
Done, and if you cannot find the path of python in macbook, "which python" also helps, and you can put it in "Home" and "Custom Python Builder".
Hope that helps, good luck!
I Fixed this issue via below steps.
1.First uninstall existing pytest.
2.Check python version.
3.then verify pytest version is supported with python version or not via github issue tracker.
4. via sudo install pytest
sudo pip install pytest
5. verify pytest version and insatlled correctly or not.
pip list
pytest --version
6.run any test using pytest test_abc.py
I encounter the same problem, python -m pytest works for me.
