"It seems that scikit-learn has not been built correctly" or "Can't import 'scikit-learn' though I installed it"

I'm trying to use import sklearn and

from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

However I either get the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sklearn' or It seems that scikit-learn has not been built correctly.

I already tried installing scikit-learn the normal way as well as use a past-version sudo pip install -U scikit-image==0.17.2 since that solves it for a lot of cases.

I found the answer in another post:

There is no actual issue with installing, the order of imports just needs to be changed. In my case, I had to make sklearn the first import. Further reading here

It might be the case that the module is installed for the wrong version of python, if you are using python3, use :

python3 -m pip install scikit-learn

or, for python 2

python -m pip install scikit-learn

using which python will show you which version of python, it is pointing to.
