Pandas: AttributeError: module 'pandas' has no attribute 'plotting'

[stepseazy]

I have no idea why I'm getting this error, as I looked in the pandas folder and there is clearly a subfolder called plotting. please help.

so this doesn't work?

(pandas) bash-3.2$ python -c "import pandas; print(pandas.plotting.scatter_matrix)"
<function scatter_matrix at 0x10f6b5a60>

show pd.show_versions()

I'm getting this error now when I try to import pandas. My pyqt is 5.6.0, not sure if that is the problem:

[TomAugspurger]

See https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/issues/16322 then.

Can you check if you have a (maybe empty) PyQt4 directory in your site-packages? Removing that should fix it.

[stepseazy]

Fixed it thanks.

[alexeygrigorev]

for me updating pandas helped, but removing the qt folder didn't

[hqkhan]

I was using pandas version 0.23.3 when I was getting this exact error. Was able to fix this by re-ordering my import statements.

I was getting this error when trying to import a file that imported pandas itself. By importing that file FIRST and the rest later fixed the issue for me.

you need to update pandas version then run the programme and you will find error remove automatically.

[Jacob-Stevens-Haas]

Not sure if mine is related, but if I sys.modules.pop('pandas'), then try import pandas, I get the error. On Pandas 0.23.4, python 3.6.

Even I am having the same problem,I tried doing in your way but the current version already adds with try and catch block for pyqt.Please reply me I need to have a solution for this also where can find my pyqt if installed or not?

AttributeError: partially initialized module 'pandas' has no attribute 'plotting' (most likely due to a circular import)

[Nikhilkumar8143]

See #16322 then.

Where can I find if my pyqt package is available or not? Please I need to have a solution for this

from pandas.plotting._misc import scatter_matrix

then don't use pd.scatter_matrix or pandas.scatter_matrix
u can call direct scatter_matrix

eg - cmap = cm.get_cmap('gnuplot')
scatter = scatter_matrix(X, c = y, marker = 'o', s=40, hist_kwds={'bins':15}, figsize=(9,9), cmap = cmap)
plt.suptitle('Scatter-matrix for each input variable')
plt.savefig('fruits_scatter_matrix')
plt.show()
