Answer 1

If you use anaconda already as a distribution, stop using pip in that context. Use conda instead and you will stop having headaches. The command lines and procedures for setting up a new environment are pretty well documented here.

Basically upgrading python or having specific branches:

conda update python
conda install python=3.5

Or using specific environments:

conda create -n py35 python=3.5 anaconda

Answer 2

Ｉuse window 7 for work and I had the same problems when I tried to import Pandas. So I tried to install packages under each environment:

Run cmd and type the following code:

activate py27 
conda install pandas 

If the system asks you do you want to install the following new packages, choose Y for [yes]

And install pandas for each different environment if you installed Python27, Python 35 and Python 36, as I did.

Then problem solved if you run jupyter notebook again and you can import pandas successfully.

You can also solve the same problem for packages like numpy, scipy, etc..

Answer 3

I meet the same problem in jupyter notebook, and I run the command below and solve my problem:

!pip install pandas

Answer 4

I was getting the error

modulenotfounderror: no module named 'pandas'

in jupyter. I tried the command:

!pip install pandas

and it worked like a charm.

Answer 5

If pip3 is install you could run

!pip3 install pandas

Answer 6

One silly mistake that you could make is to invoke Jupyter with your local machine python installation and not the anaconda python. I had the same problem and just setting the PATH did not work for me.

FIX: By default, anaconda binaries are in "<Path_to_anaconda>/bin". For example, in my case, they are in "/home/klakhotia/anaconda3/bin". This directory will also contain the binary to anaconda jupyter. Launch the jupyter from here or create an alias in your .bashrc that points to this file.
