I installed the python module matplotlib on a computer and when I try to run a program with the commands:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt I get the following errors: Traceback (most recent call last): File "new.py", line 1, in <module> import matplotlib File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 151, in <module> from matplotlib.rcsetup import (defaultParams, File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/rcsetup.py", line 20, in <module> from matplotlib.colors import is_color_like File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/colors.py", line 54, in <module> import matplotlib.cbook as cbook File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/cbook.py", line 32, in <module> import new File "/home/www/html/auroratest/new.py", line 8, in <module> plt.scatter(x,y) NameError: name 'plt' is not defined when I try to use something like import matplotlib.image as image I get the following errors: Traceback (most recent call last): File "new.py", line 1, in <module> import matplotlib.image as image File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 151, in <module> from matplotlib.rcsetup import (defaultParams, File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/rcsetup.py", line 20, in <module> from matplotlib.colors import is_color_like File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/colors.py", line 54, in <module> import matplotlib.cbook as cbook File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/cbook.py", line 32, in <module> import new File "/home/www/html/auroratest/new.py", line 1, in <module> import matplotlib.image as image File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/image.py", line 13, in <module> from matplotlib import rcParams ImportError: cannot import name rcParams What is causing these errors and what specific things do I need to do to resolve this. I need this explained clearly in a step by step way.
