AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'corrplot'

Answer 1

The corrplot function was deprecated in seaborn version v0.6: https://seaborn.github.io/whatsnew.html#other-additions-and-changes:

The corrplot() and underlying symmatplot() functions have been deprecated in favor of heatmap(), which is much more flexible and robust. These two functions are still available in version 0.6, but they will be removed in a future version.

Note that the function actually still exists in the seaborn codebase, but you have to directly import it from seaborn.linearmodels and you will get a warning that it is subject to removal in a future release.

Answer 2

Import using the command for corrplot and symmatplot

from seaborn.linearmodels import corrplot,symmatplot
