无法导入 Python 库

Question

When I installed arcade in my Windows using pip and I try to import it, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in <module>
    import arcade
  File "C:\Users\divya\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\arcade\__init__.py", line 53, in <module>
    from .window_commands import close_window

    from . import _distributor_init
  File "C:\Users\divya\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\numpy\_distributor_init.py", line 26, in <module>

    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: [WinError 193] %1 is not a valid Win32 application

I am a beginner so kindly help in simple phrases

Thanks

Answer 1

There could be multiple reasons for this.

1. Make sure your environment is clean. Meaning you have installed everything correctly.

2. I can see you're using python3.8 version. If you are using Python 3.8, the “Numpy” and “Pillow” libraries might try to build themselves from scratch, which will probably error out. To fix, we can manually update “pip” by opening aa PyCharm terminal, and then typing the following into the terminal:

    python -m pip install -U --force-reinstall pip
