TensorFlow installation


The version of TensorFlow that we will use in this chapter is 0.8 so make sure that you install this version. As TensorFlow is in heavy development, small changes are due. We can install TensorFlow quite easily with pip install, independent of which operating system you use:

pip install tensorflow

If you already have previous versions installed, you can upgrade according to your operating system:

# Ubuntu/Linux 64-bit, CPU only:
$ sudo pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/cpu/tensorflow-0.8.1-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl

# Ubuntu/Linux 64-bit, GPU enabled:
$ sudo pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/gpu/tensorflow-0.8.1-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl

# Mac OS X, CPU only:
$ sudo easy_install --upgrade six
$ sudo pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.8.1-cp27-none-any.whl

Now that TensorFlow is installed, you can test it in the terminal:

$python
import tensorflow as...
