For some reason the following code from a youtube tutorial gives a traceback due to the commented line. He and other successfully ran it in python 3.
import Quandl
import pandas as pd
import math
df = Quandl.get("WIKI/GOOGL")
df = df[['Adj. Open', 'Adj. High', 'Adj. Low', 'Adj. Close', 'Adj. Volume']]
df['HL_PCT'] = (df['Adj. High'] - df['Adj. Low']) / df['Adj. Close'] * 100.0
df['PCT_change'] = (df['Adj. Close'] - df['Adj. Open']) / df['Adj. Open'] * 100.0
df = df[['Adj. Close', 'HL_PCT', 'PCT_change', 'Adj. Volume']]
forecast_col = 'Adju. Close'
df.fillna(-99999, inplace=True)
forecast_out = int(math.ceil(0.01*len(df)))
df['label'] = df[forecast_col].shift(-forecast_out) #moves columns out 10% into future
df.dropna(inplace=True)
print(df.head())
It gives:

Currently I four python installations. Two environments in anaconda, which all appear to function well and two 'normal' python installations, 2.7 and 3.5. I've tried installing pandas
multiple times in case it was corrupted but it did nothing.
The traceback references the command:
forecast_col = 'Adju. Close'
which should probably be 'Adj. Close'
given that's how the columns
seem to be named.
