SIFT in python 2.7.9 and opencv2 doesn't work

I tried a simple program to implement sift

import cv2
import numpy as np

img = cv2.imread('sheikha.jpg')
gray= cv2.cvtColor(img,cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

sift = cv2.SIFT()
kp = sift.detect(gray,None)

img=cv2.drawKeypoints(gray,kp)

cv2.imshow('img', img)
cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

but am getting an error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "sift.py", line 7, in sift = cv2.SIFT() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'SIFT'

i tried replacing this line with sift = cv2.xfeatures2d.SIFT_create()

and still error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "sift.py", line 7, in sift = cv2.xfeatures2d.SIFT_create() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'xfeatures2d'

please help!

The problem is with your version of OpenCV. This Method is available for OpenCV 3.0 and above.

You can check the documentation. It has features2d
