Answer 1

I was having a similar issue. I installed a text processing tool using pip3. The installation was successful and I was able to run the test-code from the terminal, however I was unable to execute the same code from jupyter notebook. Checked that the sys.version was 3.7.1 in notebook but the terminal version was 3.6.9.

The problem was resolved after executing the following commands and relaunching the notebook:

pip3 install ipykernel --upgrade
python3 -m ipykernel install --user

Answer 2

The commands:

pip3 install ipykernel --upgrade
python3 -m ipykernel install --user

worked for me only after I re-installed pip (note I was having the issue for python 3.7).

For that I did:

pip uninstall pip

then I used the (deprecated) command:

sudo easy_install pip

I also deleted any pip related thing in /usr/local/bin with the command:

rm -rf pip*

hopefully, this is helpful to someone else :)

Answer 3

Issue seems to be resolved by running

pip3 install rather than pip install

Answer 4

Try the following:

pip3 install ipykernel --upgrade
python3 -m ipykernel install --user

Make sure that Panda is installed using pip3.

Fix for Visual Studio Code

Look to the top right corner and click on the displayed Python version.

It should appear a list of your Python versions. Scroll down to the Python version you want to use and click on it.

After that you should see the Python version you selected in the top right corner.
