Pycharm cannot import math module

Question

I can't import standard math module in pycharm, I'm getting an error: "No module named math", from python shell I can import it, what can cause that?

Solution 1

Check that you are pointing to the correct python file within Settings > Project > Project Interpreter.

When I've had this problem in the past my interpreter was pointing at python3.6 and not python within the bin folder of my venv. I simply dropped the interpreter and added it again pointing to the venv-name/bin/python

Solution 2

File >> Settings >> Project interpreter. You should see a list of currently installed packages/libraries. If the module is not specified in there click the plus sign and look for your module in there. Also make sure you specify it correctly when you import it.

You are going to have to provide more information on the code you use and how you have setup PyCharm

Updating PyCharm solved it for me!

I don't see math here, and I cannot install it from here.
