DLL load failed while importing _cchardet

[genesem]

OS/Arch

win10/x64

$ python -c 'import cchardet as chardet'

Python version

python 3.8.2 x64

cChardet version

cchardet 2.1.6

What is the problem?

File "C:\DevPy\DnsOverHTTPS\test.py", line 2, in
import cchardet as chardet
File "C:\Py3\lib\site-packages\cchardet_init_.py", line 1, in
from cchardet import _cchardet
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _cchardet

switched to version from

https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#cchardet
and no errors. so bug in your imports.
