I installed Python 3 on a new Mac using Miniconda and have the following setup:
When I try to run iPython in the terminal I receive the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'inputhook'
If you suspect this is an IPython bug, please report it at:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues
or send an email to the mailing list at ipython-dev@python.org
You can print a more detailed traceback right now with "%tb", or use "%debug"
to interactively debug it.
Extra-detailed tracebacks for bug-reporting purposes can be enabled via:
c.Application.verbose_crash=True
The error appears to be related to an __init__() method keyword argument 'inputhook'. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
It may be this issue, or a new related since it should be fixed: https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/11962
Downgrading prompt_toolkit worked for us: conda install prompt_toolkit==2.0.10
Edit: kmario23's response (upgrade IPython installation) is now preferable if possible!
