▌Environment

---

▋Python 3.6.2

▋TensorFlow 1.5.0

▌Install

---

▋Python

Make sure that Pyython 3.5 or 3.6 64-bit is installed in ur environment.

▋TensorFlow

Before install TensorFlow, consider that creating a virtual environment by Virtualenv or venv.

(Reference: [Python] Use Virtualenv, venv to isolate environments)

$ pip3 install --upgrade tensorflow

PS. You can install TensorFlow with GPU support, see more on official document.

If you encounters the following issue:

“Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow (from versions: )”

That means you don’t have the right Python installed, often happens when 32-bit version was installed but not 64-bit.

Check if you installed it successfully or not.

$ pip3 show tensorflow

$ pip3 show tensorflow
