AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'whois'

I tried to execute this code:

import whois w = whois.whois('webscraping.com') print w 

And I got the error above. Why?

Wrong library, solution is to remove old one and install new :

pip uninstall whois pip install python-whois 

Try this instead:

w = whois.query('webscraping.com')
