Running Tensorflow in Jupyter Notebook

  • I am trying to do some deep learning work. For this, I first installed all the packages for deep learning in my Python environment.

    Here is what I did.

    In Anaconda, I created an environment called tensorflow as follows

    conda create -n tensorflow
    ​

    Then installed the data science Python packages, like Pandas, NumPy, etc., inside it. I also installed TensorFlow and Keras there. Here is the list of packages in that environment

    You can see that jupyter is also installed.

    Now, when I open up the Python interpreter in this environment and I run the basic TensorFlow command, it all works fine. However, I wanted to do the same thing in the Jupyter notebook. So, I created a new directory (outside of this environment).

    mkdir dl
    ​


    In that, I activated tensorflow environment

    SFOM00618927A:dl i854319$ source activate tensorflow
    (tensorflow) SFOM00618927A:dl i854319$ conda list​


    And I can see the same list of packages in that.

    Now, I open up a Jupyter notebook

    SFOM00618927A:dl i854319$ source activate tensorflow
    (tensorflow) SFOM00618927A:dl i854319$ jupyter notebook

     

    It opens up a new notebook in the browser. But when I just import basic python libraries in that, like pandas, it says "no packages available". I am not sure why is that when the same environment has all those packages and in the same directory, if I use Python interpreter it shows all packages.

    import pandas
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ModuleNotFoundError                       Traceback (most recent call last)
    <ipython-input-4-d6ac987968b6> in <module>()
    ----> 1 import pandas
    
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pandas'

     

    Why jupyter notebook is not picking up these modules?

    So, Jupyter notebook doesn't show env as the interpreter

  • I came up with your case. This is how I sort it out

    Install Anaconda

    Create a virtual environment - conda create -n tensorflow

    Go inside your virtual environment - (on macOS/Linux:) source activate tensorflow (on Windows: activate tensorflow)

    Inside that install tensorflow. You can install it using pip

    Finish install

    So then the next thing, when you launch it:

    If you are not inside the virtual environment type - Source Activate Tensorflow

    Then inside this again install your Jupiter notebook and Pandas libraries, because there can be some missing in this virtual environment

    Inside the virtual environment just type:

    pip install jupyter notebook

    pip install pandas

    Then you can launch jupyter notebook saying:

    jupyter notebook

    Select the correct terminal python 3 or 2

    Then import those modules

    1. Install Anaconda
    2. Run Anaconda command prompt
    3. write "activate tensorflow" for windows
    4. pip install tensorflow
    5. pip install jupyter notebook
    6. jupyter notebook.
    Only this solution worked for me. Tried 7 8 solutions. Using Windows platform.
