I created a new environment and added it to jupyter like this:
conda create --name tf_plot tensorflow matplotlib
conda install -c anaconda ipykernel
python -m ipykernel install --user --name tf_plot
but when I try to
import matplotlib
I get ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'matplotlib'

CodePudding user response：
Going by the SO answer here the virtual environment named tf_plot needs to be activated first before import. i.e,
conda activate -n tf_plot
Please check conda documentation here for more details
