[FIXED] error while trying to import the imputer module

Issue

I'm getting this error while trying to import the imputer module

from sklearn.preprocessing import Imputer

Error:

ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

      1 # Import the Imputer module
----> 2 from sklearn.preprocessing import Imputer
      3 from sklearn.svm import SVC
      4 
      5 # Setup the Imputation transformer: imp

ImportError: cannot import name 'Imputer' from 'sklearn.preprocessing' (C:\Users\MOSTAFA\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\sklearn\preprocessing\__init__.py)

Solution

https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.impute.SimpleImputer.html

New in version 0.20: SimpleImputer replaces the previous sklearn.preprocessing.Imputer estimator which is now removed.

So, beginning with sklearn 0.20 you need to use SimpleImputer instead.

try: from sklearn.impute import SimpleImputer
