macosnumpyinstallation

As a newbie, how do I install numpy as a module please?


I have returned to python after a long break.

I have the following error in my code to understand and resolve: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy'.

I am using a Mac and working in VSstudio - how do I install numpy as a module please?

I have tried searching extensions for the numpy module, and working through messages on this platform.


Solution

  • To resolve the issue:

    1. Open Terminal on your Mac.

    2. Install NumPy by running the following command:

      pip3 install numpy
      
    3. Verify the installation with this command:

      python3 -c "import numpy; print(numpy.__version__)"
      
    4. In VS Code, open the Command Palette by pressing Cmd + Shift + P. Search for Python: Select Interpreter and select the Python environment where NumPy is installed.
