Python modules not found in Sublime IDE

Question

I am using Sublime IDE for development. When I'm building my code on Sublime on Ubuntu 18.04, it gives me an error saying:

ImportError: No module named numpy

I have installed numpy on my system and it works just fine when I run it on the terminal.

How do I get the code to build successfully on Sublime itself? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It usually happens when you have installed numpy in a different version of Python. Like you are using Python3 but numpy is installed in Python2. So Try to reinstall numpy by specifying the Python version. Try:

python3 -m pip install numpy

this will install numpy using Python3 and you will be able to use it in your IDE.

Answer 2

As @Oleg said, the interpreter on my terminal and on Sublime were different.

Used the above link to change the default interpreter for Sublime.
