Importerror: Cannot Import Name Numpy_Mkl

ImportError: cannot import name NUMPY_MKL

If you look at the line which is causing the error, you'll see this:

from numpy._distributor_init import NUMPY_MKL  # requires numpy+mkl

This line comment states the dependency as numpy+mkl (numpy with Intel Math Kernel Library). This means that you've installed the numpy by pip, but the scipy was installed by precompiled archive, which expects numpy+mkl.

This problem can be easy solved by installation for numpy+mkl from whl file from here.

Import Seaborn Error - Numpy_MKL (Python Script)

The following solution worked out:

Solution:
If you are using windows make sure you install numpy+mkl instead of just numpy.
If you have already installed scipy and numpy, uninstall then using "pip uninstall scipy" and "pip uninstall numpy"

Now download scipy from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#scipy (appropriate version for your python and system)
and install using "pip install scipy‑1.1.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl" (Please install from the list according to your system config)

Your numpy and Scipy both should work now.
These binaries by Christoph Gohlke makes it very easy to install python packages on windows. But make sure you download all the dependent packages from there.
