I get an Import Error in Python Beautiful Soup

# html_parser.py
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

#URL you want to get
url = "http://example.com"

#Get HTML by sending HTTP request with url as argument
response = requests.get(url)

#Character code is automatically encoded
response.encoding = response.apparent_encoding

#HTML parsing
bs = BeautifulSoup(response.text, 'html.parser')
title_tag = bs.find('title')

#Output the text part of the extracted tag
print(title_tag.text)
