My system has python3 as the default for python command.
when I try to import flask on python command line I get this:



Python 2.7.15rc1 (default, Apr 15 2018, 21:51:34) 
[GCC 7.3.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import flask
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named flask
>>>


but in python3 i get this:



Python 3.6.5 |Anaconda, Inc.| (default, Apr 29 2018, 16:14:56) 
[GCC 7.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import flask
>>>


How do i correct this?

It looks you are using two different packaging systems: pip and conda. For Python2, try pip2 install flask.
