Python - No module named 'PyMySQL'
<p>I'm trying to add 'PyMySQL, but it keeps throwing</p>

<pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/john/workspace/Python/sql/sql.py", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
    import PyMySQL
ImportError: No module named 'PyMySQL'
</code></pre>

<p>I tried installing it via pip and running it again, but the error doesnt go away. Any ideas on what is wrong ? </p>

<pre><code>john@john-PC:$ sudo pip install PyMySQL
