Question

from matplotlib import pyplot

I get the followin

Answer 1

sudo apt-get install python3-tk

Then,

>> import tkinter # all fine

Edit:

For Windows, I think the problem is you didn't install complete Python package. Since Tkinter should be shipped with Python out of box. See: http://www.tkdocs.com/tutorial/install.html

I suggest install ipython, which provides powerful shell and necessary packages as well.
