Q:

'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'read_csv'

Very similar question to this (no attribute named read_csv in pandas python) but the solutions are not working for me.
Very simple code thats not working 
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame()
df.read_csv('flexibility user survey.csv')

I tried adding reload(pd) but that didn't help. No pandas.py or pyc in the working directory either
full error just in case it helps

AttributeError: 'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'read_csv'

A:

Try this:
df = pd.read_csv('flexibility user survey.csv')

The error's right: read_csv isn't an attribute of a DataFrame.  It's a method of pandas itself: read_csv.  The difference between your question and the other one is that they're calling it properly (as pandas.read_csv or pd.read_csv) and you're calling it as if it were an attribute of your dataframe.
