Getting an error trying to import environment OpenAI Gym

I am trying to run an OpenAI Gym environment:

env = gym.make("ALE/Breakout-v5", render_mode="rgb_array")

But I get the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/----/Documents/Spring 2023/----/----/yum.py", line 10, in <module>
    env = gym.make("ALE/Breakout-v5", render_mode="rgb_array")

gymnasium.error.NamespaceNotFound: Namespace ALE not found. Have you installed the proper package for ALE?

I’ve looked at all the similar errors that people have discussed online, but I cannot find any fixes that work for me.

>Solution :

Installing the gym as below worked in my environment. (Python 3.7)

pip install "gym[atari, accept-rom-license]"

if you are using gymnasium:

pip install "gymnasium[atari, accept-rom-license]"

import gym # or "import gymnasium as gym"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    env = gym.make("ALE/Breakout-v5")

If it still doesn’t work try adding the following import

import ale_py
# if using gymnasium
import shimmy

import gym # or "import gymnasium as gym"

Remember to create a new empty environment before installation.
