ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘tensorflow.examples’

When I import tensorflow

import tensorflow as tf

I don’t get an error. However, I do get the error below. I’m using spyder if that helps.

As per other questions, I ensured up to date (v1.8) tensorflow using both conda and then pip installs. This didn’t resolve the issue. Please assist.

import tensorflow.examples.tutorials.mnist.input_data as input_data

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tensorflow.examples'

Answer

Sometimes on downloading the TF, the example directory might not be available. You could rectify it by linking the ‘example’ directory from the GitHub repo into the tensorflow python wheel folder. That way you don’t need to change the code.

If this doesn’t work, try to replace import tensorflow.examples.tutorials.mnist.input_data as input_data as import input_data as mentioned in the link: TensorFlow MNIST example not running with fully_connected_feed.py

Hope this helps!!!
