Procedure Entry Point could not be located - ZedsDead - Mar-17-2018

Hi, I am using Spyder through the Anaconda installation on Windows 10.

Every time I open up Spyder I will get an error message saying:

I click ok and I can still run my code, which is:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

#%% DEFINES BLOCKS OF CODE
import numpy as np # math library
import scipy # scientific library
import pylab as pl # plotting library
#%% this will output some wisdom
print('Python and Calcium Imaging, a marriage made in heaven')
#%% this creates a random vector
a = np.random.random([10,10])
print(a)
#%% this will plot something
pl.imshow(a)

The problem is I cannot get a plot to work. Whether I use the above code or something else such as:

import numpy as np
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from sklearn import tree



# 1. Import Dataset
iris = load_iris()
#print(iris.feature_names)
#print(iris.target_names)
#print(iris.data[0])
#print(iris.target[51])
#for i in range(len(iris.target)):
#    print("Example %d: Label %s, Features %s" % (i, iris.target[i], iris.data[i]))

# 2. Train a Classifier
# 2.1 Testing Data = examples used to test the classifier's accuracy, not part of the training data
    # remove 3 entries from the data and target variables of the original dataset, to use as testing data
test_idx = [0, 50, 100]

# training data:
train_target = np.delete(iris.target, test_idx)
train_data = np.delete(iris.data, test_idx, axis=0)

#testing data
test_target = iris.target[test_idx]
test_data = iris.data[test_idx]

clf = tree.DecisionTreeClassifier()
clf.fit(train_data, train_target)

#3. predict label for new flower
print(test_target)
print(clf.predict(test_data))

#4 visualise the tree
import graphviz 
dot_data = tree.export_graphviz(clf, out_file=None) 
graph = graphviz.Source(dot_data) 
graph.render("iris") 

dot_data = tree.export_graphviz(clf, out_file=None, 
                         feature_names=iris.feature_names,  
                         class_names=iris.target_names,  
                         filled=True, rounded=True,  
                         special_characters=True)  
graph = graphviz.Source(dot_data)  
graph

It will run everything until it reaches the plot code and will not plot anything.

Any help with this is really appreciated. I am in dire need to fix this issue for getting started with Python for University and at the moment am behind due to these issues.

Cheers,

that doesn't sound verbatim!
what's the entire unaltered error message?
