I am new to python (started 2 days ago) and I got to the point where I want to use matplotlib for my program. I am using python 3.3, and after I followed the matplotlib installation instructions, I followed these steps:
sudo apt-get install python-pip sudo pip install matplotlib
This returned an import error:
ImportError: No module named 'matplotlib'
So, after some research, I tried this:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get build-dep python-matplot
I am still getting the same import error. I found this page here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/427708/matplotlib-error-no-module-named-matplotlib-even-though-it-is-installed
This gave the impression that I installed the wrong version of matplotlib and I need v1.2 or higher. Can someone explain to me what I need to do to be able to use matplotlib and not get this error with Python 3.3?
I am currently using Ubuntu 12.04.
Thanks.
