After a pip update, pip has stopped working completely.
Z:\>pip install matplotlib Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\program files\python37\lib\runpy.py", line 193, in _run_module_as_main "__main__", mod_spec) File "c:\program files\python37\lib\runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "C:\Program Files\Python37\Scripts\pip.exe\__main__.py", line 9, in <module> TypeError: 'module' object is not callable
Any help please?
Edit: I am working on windows 10
The Python "TypeError: 'module' object is not callable" occurs when we import a module as import some_module but try to call it as a function or class. To solve the error, use dot notation to access the specific function or class before calling it, e.g. module. my_func() .
It says module object is not callable, because your code is calling a module object. A module object is the type of thing you get when you import a module. What you were trying to do is to call a class object within the module object that happens to have the same name as the module that contains it.
All credit for this goes to user han_solo, who left the answer as a comment, instead of as an answer:
Instead of pip install stdlib_list --user
use python -m pip install stdlib_list --user
Replace stdlib_list
with matplotlib
or whatever the name is of the package you want.
I've had the same issue as you, and I solved it uninstalling pip and installing again.
To uninstall: python -m pip uninstall pip
To install, follow the instructions: https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/install-pip-windows/
After that you will going to have a older but functional 19.0.3 version.
