Unable to Import "Adafruit_MCP3008
#1
Hi, all, news here!
I am unable to import "Adafruit_MCP3008" I get an error message when I run my code (I have downloaded that module onto my Pi), and when I go to the GitHub site it says that the Adafruit _Python_MCP3008 library has been deprecated and the CircuitPython must be used.  Does anyone come about this case when using it?
Obviously, I'm a NOOB and I found some videos about this on Youtube. But I'm confused about how code works and mine does not.  
Thanks!

There's a whole bunch of stuff here confirming what you say about the library being deprecated but it shows how to use the CircuitPython module instead. It has plenty of examples.

You need the library Adafruit_CircuitPython_MCP3xxx. You can use this library with python or CircuitPython.
