Attributeerror: module numpy has no attribute bool ( Solution ) –

The first solution to fix up this error is downgrading the numpy version. The second alternative is changing the syntax which is compatible with the numpy version and preserving the same functionality.

Since this error is because of syntax depreciation of numpy.bool(). But if we point to the library version where this syntax is available. Here is the command for downgrading numpy version.

pip install numpy==1.23.5

You can use conda or any other package manager if you want in place of pip.

Solution 2: Use astype(bool) function instead of np.bool() –

There are many situations where we have to use any numpy version which is creating incompatibility with the install python interpreter version or any third package error. If we can not change the version then we should use the alternative syntax. Here is an example.

import numpy as np
a= np.array([1, 2])
final = a.astype(bool)
print(final)
