Wolfram Alpha Python API not working

问题

I'm using Python 3.6 on MacOS Sierra 10.12.3. I installed wolframalpha, and made sure my app id is valid (it works fine with URL requests using RESTful), yet I still get this error when I try and run the example from Wolfram's own documentation.

import wolframalpha

client = wolframalpha.Client('xxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx')

res = client.query('temperature in Washington, DC on October 3, 2012')

Gives me these errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Any ideas? I have no idea what to do anymore. Thanks in advance.

回答1:

ssl.SSLError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed

indicates that you have to do import ssl also.
