Did the installation by pip succeed? if not, what was the error message?

"It keeps saying ...". What keeps saying that (it's not a standard error 
message from pip)? What is the code or command that causes this error 
message?

You would get such a message if you tried to import a package but it had 
not been installed.  If you used pip to install a package and it 
succeeded but you could not import the package (or module), the most 
likely reason is that it got installed by a different version of python 
than the one that used pip to install it.  You may have several 
different versions of Python on your computer.

You can check versions by running

pip -V

Then use the command you normally use to run Python (i.e., python3, py, 
etc.) and run

py_x -m pip -V

(don't type "py_x", use the command name you normally use to run python)

If the two outputs are different, then you will know for sure that your 
packages got installed to a different version of Python.  Re-install 
them using "python -m pip install" instead of "pip install" - again, 
make sure that you use the actual name for the python command that you 
normally use.
