Ahh, so I see the problem. It's not a python problem, it's more like a permissions error. It's like when you put a read-only mode on a file.

One way around this is to use Sudo. I am going to put 2 ways in the command in case one error out, so you might see some errors, but don't worry.

sudo pip install matplotlib && sudo -E pip install matplotlib

But really, just get pycharm, then you won't have to put up with this because of the VENV.
