The Azure PowerShell session has not been properly initialized. Please import the module and try again

I'm writing my first powershell script to load data from a CSV to an Azure Storage table. I'm not sure why the line 

$storageAccountKey = (Get-AzStorageAccountKey -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $storageAccountName)[0].Value

is throwing an error:

enter image description here

Running Get-Module gives this result: enter image description here

This is a snippet of the code that I have written till now:

# Step 1, Set variables
# Enter Table Storage location data 
$resourceGroupName = "ComputeTesting"
$storageAccountName = 'computetestingdiag'
$tableName = 'strtable'
$dateTime = get-date

# Step 2, Login to your Azure subscription
$sub = Get-AzSubscription -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
if(-not($sub))
{
    Connect-AzAccount
}

# If you have multiple subscriptions, set the one to use
# Select-AzSubscription -SubscriptionId "<SUBSCRIPTIONID>"

# Step 3, Get the access key for the Azure Storage account
$storageAccountKey = (Get-AzStorageAccountKey -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $storageAccountName)[0].Value

# Step 4, Connect to Azure Table Storage
$storageCtx = New-AzureStorageContext -StorageAccountName $storageAccountName -StorageAccountKey $storageAccountKey
$table = Get-AzureStorageTable -Name $tableName -Context $storageCtx

I checked some of the similar questions and what I understand that uninstalling and re-installing the Azure modules might help. Although I didn't try this yet, is there any other workaround for this? Any help whatsoever would be highly helpful.

According to the script you provided, you use the Az and AzureRM modules at the same PowerShell session. It may cause conflicts. I suggest you use the one module in one session.

For example

$resourceGroupName = "<>"
$storageAccountName = '<>'
$tableName = '<>'

Connect-AzAccount
$storageAccountKey = (Get-AzStorageAccountKey -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $storageAccountName)[0].Value

$storageCtx = New-AzStorageContext -StorageAccountName $storageAccountName -StorageAccountKey $storageAccountKey
$table = Get-AzStorageTable -Name $tableName -Context $storageCtx
