Cannot create a cdo instance in python

My python version is 3.10.6. I want to create an instance of a Cdo object in python (https://pypi.org/project/cdo/).

from cdo import *
cdo = Cdo()

Howerver, I am getting the following error:

/usr/bin/python3.10 /home/iliamous/PycharmProjects/winbank-esg-risk-gis-platform/scratch_work.py

Solution

Seems there was an issue with the installation of the package. First, I removed the package by writing in the terminal

pip uninstall cdo

Then, I installed cdo again, this time using the command line

sudo apt-get -y install cdo
