I am working through Automate the Boring Stuff chapter 8.
The chapter deals with input verification and needs pyinputplus. I installed it as shown in the image but IDLE shell can't find it.

Any ideas on what may be the issue here?

Image shows the Command prompt confirmation and error in IDLE.
I had the same problem and I think it was Mu.
If I tried to import pyinputplus or pyperclip on Mu, I would get
ModuleNotFoundError
I then tried to import the modules on Visual Studio Code and it worked.
Figured it out. The lib installed to python38-32 folder rather than the sys folder Python38.

Hello can you please elaborate on how you manage to do it? I'm a complete noob at this haha
edit: okay nvm thank you, i somehow manage to do it. But how did you come to that conclusion that pyinputplus must be inside lib? Still so many gaps in my knowledge

I saw the other libraries installed in the Python38 folder, so I put the pyinputplus there as well.
