My first answer was to say that it looks like pandas is not installed correctly, but now I'm not too sure. > the thing that i really don't understand is that in the shell window if i > type import statsmodels.tsa i don't get any error, What happens if you enter from statsmodels.tsa import stattools instead? Importing of packages in Python may be done lazily, just because statsmodels.tsa imports successfully does not necessarily mean that statsmodels.tsa.stattools will be available, even if it shows up in the help file. If may also help if you put these few lines at the beginning of your script, for diagnosis: import os print os.getcwd() print os.listdir(r"C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pandas") What output do these generate? This may help us diagnose whether you are running from the pandas source directory. -- Steven _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
