## ---------------------------------------------
## Installed package version information

## Importing modules
import torch
import torchvision
import numpy as np
import cv2

## Printing version information for each package
print(f'torch v.{torch.__version__}')
print(f'torchvision v.{torchvision.__version__}')
print(f'numpy v.{np.__version__}')
print(f'cv2 v.{cv2.__version__}')


When I run this script, it works perfectly, and the version of OpenCV (cv2) is printed correctly. However, in my IDE (Visual Studio Code), I get the following warning:
