title: Error importing Seaborn module in Python
body: <p>I am trying to import seaborn into python (using 2.7) using the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  import seaborn as sns
  import pandas as pd
  import numpy as np
  import math as math
  from pylab import rcParams
  
  %matplotlib inline
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and getting the following error message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
