I get an ImportError: No module named 'numpy' when trying to use numpy in PyCarm, but it works fine in the interactive console

Question

I'm already installed numpy and it works in cmd.
my Python version is 3.7.2 and numpy version is 1.16.0

When I use numpy in windows cmd, It works. import numpy is working well in the python interactive console. But in pyCharm, it doesn't work and errors with No module named 'numpy'.

How can I solve it?

You probably arent using the same python installation in pycharm and in your console. Did you double-check in project settings ?

If you just want to install numpy, you can create a requirements.txt file and add numpy in it, pycharm will suggest to install it if not already done.

Alternatively, you could use a venv

I solve it!! Post it for someone else. File - Settings - Build, Execution, Deployment - Console - Python Console And check Python Interpreter without default. – RollingPig Jan 17 '19 at 18:04

Because by default the when you create the new project in pycharm it creates virtualenvironment along with it if you have selected to do it – Gaurav Jan 17 '19 at 18:05
@Gaurav if he installed numpy on the system python, if should have been import-able even in the venv (depending on the venv config, of course) – WayToDoor Jan 17 '19 at 18:06
@WayToDoor Yes That's what i add at end *If You have selected to do it* – Gaurav Jan 18 '19 at 02:05
