How can I import pandas_datareader

• I just downloaded Visual Studio Code, and I´m having troubles with importing the library in the newest version of the software.
• I hope someone can give me an instruction step by step.
• NOTE: I'm using python as my coding language

• The following instructions are for versions of packages current as of this writing.
• pandas-datareader documentation
• The module is not part of pandas and must be installed separately
• Use the directions at Python in Visual Studio Code to properly configure VS Code to work with your python interpreter.

pip

• As per the documentation at pydata / pandas-datareader

pip install pandas-datareader

conda

• Use this method if your python was installed as part of the Anaconda distribution.
• anaconda / packages / pandas-datareader

# at the anaconda prompt
conda install -c anaconda pandas-datareader

Usage

import pandas_datareader as pdr

Note

• For older versions of ipython (e.g. 3.x, which is from before 2015-08), !pip install pandas-datareader or %pip ... may work (mentioned in a comment).
