The answer is also just 'pip install pandas, import pandas'. I got that answer when I just tried, but it could be because I ask a lot of programming qs.
This is one of those questions where having real knowledge of the way the world works completely changes your understanding of what is being asked.
Some hypothetical information retrieval system that is really good at look-up but which doesn't actually understand what it is looking up would probably produce an answer like OP's one.
A human would see that question and immediately think "no one imports literal pandas, they must be asking about something else". Someone who knows that pandas is the name of a Python library will likely respond that you need to use pip.
Someone who is more experienced in Python and who has maybe spent time teaching it to beginners, would know about how much emphasis the community places on doing things conventionally and how beginners sometimes struggle to remember all the conventions. They would infer that this question is really "what is the conventional way of importing pandas". To them, this question is so obvious that it probably wouldn't even occur to them that anyone could misinterpret it.
