[Python] AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'implicit' when trying to use...

I am trying to fit data using scipy.odr in a Jupyter notebook, but I keep getting an AttributeError. The relevant code is below,

from scipy.odr import *

def linear(U_0, x):
return U_0[0]*x + U_0[1]

linear_model = Model(linear)

quadratic_data = RealData(angle_squared, flattened_velocity, sx=angle_error_squared, sy=flattened_velocity_error)
cubic_data = RealData(angle_cubed, flattened_velocity, sx=angle_error_cubed, sy=flattened_velocity_error)

quadratic_odr = ODR(quadratic_data, linear, beta0=[1,0])
cubic_odr = ODR(cubic_data, linear, beat0=[1,0])

quadratic_output = quadratic_odr.run()
cubic_output = cubic_odr.run()

quadratic_output.pprint()


When I try and run my code, the error below returns:

AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'implicit'


I have no idea how to begin fixing this, and from what I can tell this error comes from the module itself and not the code I've written. If anyone could give any insight that would be great, thanks!
