@NeePew it is not pip install sklearn but `pip install scikit-learn` — Noki, Feb 03 '20 at 13:06

According to the pypi page for sklearn, you should be using pip install scikit-learn instead of pip install sklearn

Your requirements.txt file needs the line

scikit-learn==0.22.1

or, if you're not storing requirements for the project, then

pip install scikit-learn

on the command line.
