Installing tensorflow gpu in anaconda 5.3












2














I have recently installed anaconda 5.3 and it came with python 3.7 preinstalled. Now when I checked tensorflow website it's says tensorflow does not support 3.7 only 3.6.




Tensorflow Requires Python 3.4, 3.5, or 3.6




What can I do now to have tensorflow gpu for my pc. Any help is appreciated. Is there any workaround?



Thanks.

    You should download and install Anaconda3 5.2. Let's say, for Windows x64 it would be repo.anaconda.com/archive/Anaconda3-5.2.0-Windows-x86_64.exe. Then you'll have python 3.6 and could get tensorflow on top if it

You should create a new conda virtual environment with python 3.6, then install tensorflow into that.
At the creation of the new env you can freely choose the python version you want to use.
This is one of the essence of conda and virtual envs in general.



A bit more details:



Inside of the anaconda-navigator you can choose Environments, then choose create. Here you can give the new environment name and the packages basis i.e. Python or R and the versions you want to use it for the environment. Then you have to install your custom packages beside of the default ones. Here you can install tensorflow-gpu too.
For installing packages you can choose Anaconda navigator GUI or inside of the Anaconda command shell with conda conda install <package> or in the Anaconda command shell pip install <package>.
In general you should prefer Anaconda package management i.e. GUI or conda to the package versions be consistent, what conda manages well. In some cases -choose always the package developer's suggestion- however, you may choose pip install.

    @user214 No, you have to install the packages you need. Either you know what you need or it will turn out when you try to run your code in the form of "no module installed" or so error message. Then you will know what you have to install yet as a dependency any of the packages you use.
