RuntimeError: Failed to process string with tex because latex could not be found

I tried with this code snippet to draw a sample graph.

with plt.style.context('science'):     
    plt.figure()     
    plt.plot(x, y)     
    plt.show()

But I amm getting the following error. is it because of matplotlib latest version problem? RuntimeError: Failed to process string with tex because latex could not be found.

I did,I installed it with pip latek package. it didn’t work. but I managed to make it work with some manjaro libraries. thank you.

Maybe you should install latex in your computer directly such that latex can be directly called as a command. I have fixed the same issue by the following command.

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-extra texlive-fonts-recommended dvipng cm-super

while the cm-super is used for this error latex was not able to process the following string: b'lp'.

@Dimple10 that issue is with the installation of Latex in your system. Check out this FAQ as said garrettj403.

If it does not work, tell us what your errors are copied from the clipboard, and try to run the command latex or pdflatex in the command prompt, as well as your OS and versions of the installed software.
