Why am I getting this error 'ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'binance.client'; 'binance' is not a package' after binance installed?
I am using visual studio code to try and pull candles from binance but i keep getting the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'binance.client'; 'binance' is not a package
heres the line of code that is causing the error:
from binance.client import Client
Ive made sure that I pip installed python-binance to the right version of python and from what ive read im guessing theres something wrong with the path but im not sure what to look for. I ran the following code check the path
import pprint, os
import binance
pprint.pprint(os.path.abspath(binance.__file__))
this was my result
'/Users/myName/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/binance.py'
i read that having files named binance.py could mess with it, but this was the name given when it was downloaded. if your curious about what it looks like here it is:

Answer
Uninstall, Reinstall, Upgrade.
python -m pip uninstall python-binance
python -m pip install python-binance
python -m pip install --upgrade python-binance
2. It looks like your binance.py file that you are writing is located in your site-packages. When you installed python-binance there was a folder created in your site-packages called binance
You could move the file you are working on or rename the file you are working on.
this is what you are doing:
from binance.client import Client
this is what it means:
from the binance folder located in site_packages import the Client Class from the client.py file.
Since you have a binance.py it could be overriding the binance folder but im not sure why a module would be trying to import itself. Unless you are doing it differently.
