No module named X even though I know it is installed

Question

I am trying to access a fairly simple python package via pip from here but am running into an error when I try and import. As usual, I have run pip install inflect and have confirmed that it is installed correctly. I then try to import in Spyder via import inflect but receive an error message stating: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'inflect'

I have used this package on a different PC recently without issue. However, when I try to import on a new desktop I get the error mentioned above.

Answer 1

when you are installing the library you can see the directory where it has been installed. Copy that dir and run the following:

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, "path/to/your/inflect")
import inflect
