Tensorflow or Tensorflow 2?

Course Q&A Deep Learning Specialization Improving Deep Neural Networks: Hyperparameter tun

Hi,

Does this course and the next ones of the Specialization use Tensorflow o Tensorflow 2?

Thanks.

It is TensorFlow 2. You can verify this by printing the version:

print(f"TF version {tf.__version__}")

Here’s what I see when I run that in the C2 W3 assignment:

TF version 2.3.0

Thank you for the reply.

I suggest a modification of the logo of the assignment of C2W3. It corresponds to the first version of Tensorflow and it got me worried.

Cheers.

Sorry, I don’t know what logo you are talking about. Also notice that they specifically call out TF 2.3 in several places in the first few paragraphs of that assignment.

This is assumed to be your first intro to TF. But if you are sophisticated enough to have already worked with TF before, then it’s not unreasonable to expect that you also know how to print the version for yourself. When these courses were first published in 2017, TF2 did not even exist, so the courses initially used TF1. Then they did a big rewrite to convert to TF2 in April of 2021. Maybe they were too busy concentrating on the code work and missed some of the “window dressing” aspects.

Hi,

Thank you for the reply.

I wasn’t trying to be rude, just to do a small suggestion. I just saw this logo, went out to the description of the course, and did not see anywhere in the specifications that it corresponded to Tensorflow 2. I know that I can see the version in this assignment, but I can´t see the other assignments if I am not enrolled.

Cheers.

All the courses have been upgraded to TF2 as of April 2021.
