ImportError: cannot import name 'boston_dataframe' from 'helper' (/Users/irina/opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/helper/__init__.py)

Answer

Since you are not giving the where you get the notebook, I have to guess that you get it from this course Supervised Learning: Regression provided IBM.

In the zip folder in week 1, it provides helper.py.

What you need to do it is to change the directory to where this file is. Change IPython/Jupyter notebook working directory

Alternatively, you can load boston data from sklearn then load it to Pandas Dataframe

Advices for you:

• Learn how to use Jupyter notebook
• Learn how Python import work
• Learn how to provide information in a question so that no one need to guess
