title: Matplotlib - AttributeError: 'version_info' object has no attribute '__version__"
body: <p>I am not sure how to fix this error. I have tried searching everywhere. This error only comes up when I try to interact with matplotlib. My pip is fully upgraded and I am using python 3.6.0 for a class. Thank you!</p>
