unable to install tensorflow==1.4.1 for python 2.7

[medasuryatej]

It is mentioned in the code that it is written in Tensorflow==1.4.1 in Python 2.7
I am unable to install Tensorflow==1.4.1 in Python 2.7 Environment. I am able to install Tensorflow only in python 3.5 and above. When I try to run main.py with I facing several Python 2.7 to 3.6 compatibility issues

Error While installing Tensorflow in Python 2.7

C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install tensorflow==1.4.0 --proxy approxy.rockwellcollins.com:9090

Was able to solve it, by opening every file with encoding="utf8" in the code

[dhrths]

can you please tell me what do you mean by 'opening every file with encoding="utf8"?

[medasuryatej]

the encoding of the file caused an issue UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 2776: character maps to
So I had to change the file encoding to utf8 while reading/writing, and it worked

[dhrths]

The file encoding in main.py is already in utf-8 coding...where do we have to change?

[medasuryatej]

I kinda changed in every file . While opening in write mode added a encoding = utf8 On Aug 16, 2018 18:39, "DHRTHI NANDA" <[email protected]> wrote: The file encoding in main.py is already in utf-8 coding...where do we have to change? — You are receiving this because you authored the thread.

use python 3+ but convert each file using (2to3 -w filename) command.
