Installing Plotly

📊 Plotly Python
1

Iḿ trying to install plotly & set up streaming, but i can seem to get past step 1 (installing plotly).
Every reference to plotly i try in python gives the same response:

import plotly
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 1, in
File “plotly.py”, line 1, in
import plotly.plotly as py # plotly library
ImportError: No module named plotly

plotly.version
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 1, in
NameError: name ‘plotly’ is not defined

I´ve read through this forum & updated pip & python, as well as put the correct username & API key in the credentials file, all to no avail.

Anyone got any ideas for a beginner?
