How do you import libraries in PyCharm for Python?
To import a Python library in PyCharm, you can follow these steps:
- Open PyCharm and open your Python project.
- Locate where you need to import libraries in your Python script.
- To import a library, use the import keyword followed by the name of the library at the location where it is needed. For example, to import the NumPy library, use the following statement: import numpy.
- To import specific functions or modules from a library, you can use the ‘from’ keyword followed by the library’s name, then the ‘import’ keyword, and finally the name of the function or module. For example, to import the ‘array’ function from the NumPy library, you can use the following statement: ‘from numpy import array’.
- You can use imported libraries and functions in your Python script. For example, if you import the NumPy library, you can use numpy.array() to call the array function.
Note: Make sure you have installed the library before importing it. You can use the pip command to install Python libraries, for example: pip install numpy.
