ERROR: Line magic function %mathplotlib not found.

[ualisher]

I'm using jupiter provided by dataquest and I get an error
"ERROR: Line magic function %mathplotlib not found". I searched online and the solutions are variants of installation of more recent versions of python. But since the jupiter resides on your server, I can't do that. Can you please suggest a solution? Thanks.

Hi @ualisher,

The reason you are getting that error is because there is a typo in your code.

Instead of %mathplotlib inline you need %matplotlib inline, ie without the 'h'.

Also, the best place for support is to use the ? icon at the top of the Dataquest platform - it could be really easy for a message here to get missed.

I hope this helps!
