after pip successful installed: ModuleNotFoundError

I am trying to install the SimPy module so that I can use it in IDLE. However, everytime I try to import in IDLE, I got an error. I already tried reinstalling Python and Pip and tried to modify the location of the apps. SimPy can be found in the directory of Python 2.7. I’m using python 3.6.1.

After I correctly installed simpy in the terminal:

pip install simpy
Requirement already satisfied: simpy in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages

JavaScript
​x
 
pip install simpy
Requirement already satisfied: simpy in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
​

When I put into IDLE:

Import Simpy

JavaScript
 
Import Simpy
​

I got the error:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>
    import simpy
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'simpy'

JavaScript
 
    Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>
    import simpy
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'simpy'
​

How can I solve this?

Answer

Since you are using python 3.6.1, you may need to specify the type of python you want to install simpy for. Try running pip3 install simpy to install the simpy module to your python3 library.
