Python3: Module not found

Question

I have installed numpy but shell says it is not installed. I have multiple python3 versions installed. I know it has to do something to point to the correct path, but I don't know how to do it. Both python3 and pip3 points python 3.6. I don't understand what the problem could be?

These may be helpful:

$ where python3                  
/home/subtleseeker/miniconda3/bin/python3
/usr/bin/python3
/usr/bin/python3

$ whereis python3

$ pip3 --version
pip 18.0 from /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/pip (python 3.6)

$ python3 --version
Python 3.6.5 :: Anaconda, Inc.

>>> import sys
>>> print(sys.path)
['', '/home/subtleseeker/miniconda3/lib/python36.zip', '/home/subtleseeker/miniconda3/lib/python3.6', '/home/subtleseeker/miniconda3/lib/python3.6/lib-dynload', '/home/subtleseeker/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages', '/home/subtleseeker/miniconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages']

The problem started when I installed miniconda. BTW I already had anaconda installed.

Have you already made sure that numpy is really installed with the python version you are using? You can do this with

$ [path_to_your_used_python_version] -m pip show numpy

If it is not installed, you can install it with

$ [path_to_your_used_python_version] -m pip install numpy
