pandas install error

[loren41]

Python package installed but gives dependency error on import of pandas.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/bob/Python_work_area/csv_crime_test_2.py", line 9, in <module>
import pandas as pd
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pandas/__init__.py", line 19, in <module>

How did you install, you should have used pip install pandas

[loren41]

I installed using pip3 install pandas from Konsole terminal

[Larz60+]

and if you run pip3 -V from command line, is it synced with proper version of python
finnaly, does python3 -V match expected version, and are you using python3 to execute script?

[loren41]

Both sync to python 3.6. Is there a way to verify that I am using python3 to execute script? My package mgr describes Sublime Text as python 3. I can do an import csv and that is verified.

I saw in the first error message sequence that I posted that I have Missing required dependencies ['pytz', 'dateutil']. I checked with my package manager and installed python3-dateutil and python3-pytz. This removed dateutil as a missing dependency, but pytz remains in the error message. Seems like a good clue, but not there yet.

Installing those two dependencies solved my problem. Thanks for your help and on to the next.
