Matplotlib error: AttributeError: module 'matplotlib' has no attribute 'rcParams'

Question

I've been using matplotlib without any problem, but yesterday I tried to install an other library that uses matplotlib and since that I have an error that I can't avoid. Could someone help me?

Answer 1

What version of matplotlib are you using?

$ pip install matplotlib
$ python3

>>> matplotlib.version

then...

see the complete list of modules (example: matplotlib 3.5.1):
