python ImportError No module named queue while running myAnalyze

troubleshooting `importerror: no module named queue` in python

the `importerror: no module named queue` error in python typically arises when you're trying to use the `queue` module (for thread-safe queues) in python 2. this is because the `queue` module was renamed to `queue` (capital "q") in python 2. in python 3, the correct name is `queue` (lowercase "q").

this tutorial will break down the problem, provide solutions, and offer strategies for writing code that is compatible with both python 2 and python 3. we will also cover scenarios where this error might occur even in python 3 (though less common) and how to address them.

**1. understanding the problem: python 2 vs. python 3**

* **python 2:** in python 2, the thread-safe queue module is named `queue` (capital "q").
* **python 3:** in python 3, the thread-safe queue module is named `queue` (lowercase "q").

this naming difference is a significant source of confusion and errors when code written for one version is run on the other.

**2. diagnosing the issue**

the error message `importerror: no module named queue` (lowercase) indicates that your python interpreter (likely python 2) cannot find a module named `queue`. this usually happens when your code contains a line like:

**3. solutions**

the best solution depends on whether you need to support both python 2 and python 3, or only a specific version.

**3.1. if you're targeting only python 3:**

the simplest solution is to ensure you are running your code with a python 3 interpreter. if you have both python 2 and python 3 installed, you might be accidentally using the python 2 interpreter. how you do this depends on your operating system and setup:
