for some reason I always get that error when I try to import an external library, even after downloading it. tried to search but no results. does anyone know the reason for this error?

Answer 1

If the library is for image manipulation the correct is:

pip install Pillow

Note Pillow with the letter P capitalized.

Carrying

import PIL

or

from PIL import Image
