Import XGBoost Python Package into Stata 16 Python Interface

[Arjun Verma]

Hello,

I am currently exploring the Python-Stata interface available in Stata 16. I have installed Python and the XGBoost package. I have confirmed the functionality of my installation by executing XGBoost analysis within Jupyter Notebook.

However, when I try to import XGBoost into Stata, it gives me the following error. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

python
import xgboost
