From: too many arguments

Login successful.

from datasets import load_dataset

from: too many arguments

This uses /usr/bin/from  
The other "from" installed (not an executable) is in   
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/  
Am I missing the package that the correct "from" is in?

Python can malfunction just from the folder name or file name. Is there a “from" folder or “from.py”?

They were just the two obtained using find

I just ran find again and found another from in
/etc/alternatives/
but it also gave “too many arguments”

Perhaps not Python, but Python notebook? (jupyter, pylint, etc.)

It’s not a notebook.
I tried putting datasets and .local/bin on the PATH but it still didn’t work.
I also tried
python3 -c from datasets import load_dataset
File “”, line 1
from
