Ok. I solved my issue using wheels. Here are the steps:
python -m pip install <filename>This installed worcloud 1.2.1. I tried the simple example and it worked.
In the Anaconda prompt, enter: conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge wordcloud
After this, start python shell, and try to import the wordcloud module. It should be imported successfully
Was this solved? I have the same error. Windows 7 Python 3.5
use this command it worked for me … conda install -c conda-forge wordcloud …
Have you tried this? https://github.com/amueller/word_cloud/issues/134#issuecomment-228208102
The error log clearly describes what went wrong. You need a C++ compiler which wasn’t found. It’s easier to just install directly from the wheel file.
