DRAFT PAPER

Updating Anaconda TensorFlow on Mac for use with jupyter notebook

I have been running TensorFlow, but it has been acting up and needed an update.

Initializing the variables

init = tf.initialize_all_variables() # older TF 0.11.0-py35_0 conda-forge

init = tf.global_variables_initializer() # newer TF 0.12.1-py35_1 conda-forge

Check what environment you are running, especially if you switch often, or just restarted the computer.

$ conda info –envs

conda environments:

# CarND-TensorFlow-Lab /Users/ukilucas/anaconda3/envs/CarND-TensorFlow-Lab IntroToTensorFlow /Users/ukilucas/anaconda3/envs/IntroToTensorFlow py3 /Users/ukilucas/anaconda3/envs/py3 py35 /Users/ukilucas/anaconda3/envs/py35 root * /Users/ukilucas/anaconda3

I have been running “nohup jupyter notebook &” command and my Jupyter Notebook did not see my newest TensorFlow environments. I wanted to update my root anyway.

I execute the following:

$ conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow

Solving package specifications: ……….

Package plan for installation in environment /Users/ukilucas/anaconda3:

The following packages will be UPDATED:

protobuf: 3.0.0-py35_0 conda-forge –> 3.1.0-py35_0 conda-forge

tensorflow: 0.11.0-py35_0 conda-forge –> 0.12.1-py35_1 conda-forge

Proceed ([y]/n)? y

Update:

I decided to create my TensorFlow in a new environment because I have Python 3.6:

$ python –version

Python 3.6.0 :: Continuum Analytics, Inc.

$ conda create -n tensorflow python=3.5

Another option is DOWNGRADE Python 3.6 to Python 3.5

$ conda install python=3.5
