Python: ImportError: lxml not found, please install it

Question

I have the following code (in PyCharm (MacOS)):

import pandas as pd

fiddy_states = pd.read_html(\'https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states\')

         


        

Answer 1

I got same error, it seems that my python3 was pointing to pandas in python2 (since I have not install pandas in python3). After doing pip3 install pandas and restarting a notebook, it worked fine.

Answer 2

You can go to Settings > Project Interpreter > Click on '+' icon
Find 'lxml' from the list of packages and click 'Install Package' button found below.

I am using PyCharm 2019.2.1 (Community Edition)

Answer 3

Based on the fact that the error is:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/python3.6

This means that you are working with python-3.6. Now usually the package manager for python-3.x is pip3. So you probably should install it with:

pip3 install lxml
