Spider is not running basic ML commands

[Chris]

I am having some serious problems with Spider, enough to make me consider uninstalling it as a piece of trash. It will not run basic numpy and matplotlib commands and instead gives me error messages. Here is my code (that I actually cut and pasted from elsewhere, just because I am still learning and am trying to teach myself how all this stuff works).

import numpy as np

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = np.arrange(0, 10, 0.1)

y = np.sin(x)

plt.plot(x, y)

plt.savefig("graph.png")

plt.show()

Any reason why Spider would reject this code? I thought Spider was going to be really cool. It seemed like it. Now it is really starting to SUCK!!!!!

Calling the work of others a piece of trash is not a good way to ask for help.

There is a misconception. Spyder is not Python or a Python
distribution. In python there are several concepts that need to be
correctly understood in order to make things work.

If you are a newcomer it could be difficult but it you are polite and
ask the correct questions maybe we can help you. I wouldn't consider
SUCK and TRASH the expected behaviour of a well mannered and
respectful person.

So, if you want to start a new polite conversation telling us how did
you install python?, how did you install Spyder?, are you using a
virtual environment?, how did you install numpy, matplotlib,...?, etc,
maybe we can bring you some help.

Kind regards.

I fully agree to kikoco. But I tested your code and it indeed doesn't work neither in Spyder nor in any other Python distribution.

That is because the module `numpy` has no attribute `arrange`, exactly what the error message states. The attribute your are trying to use is `arange`, which exists and works.

Some bad people might now say, that in this case you are trash, not Spyder - but I won't do something like that.

I also noticed that `arange` isn't English, which isn't Spyder's fault, but Numpy's. However, it is actually English. The intended name is a range which leads to a function, called arange.

Kind regards,
