I have installed Python version 3.5 and 3.6 and anaconda.
The following error occures when trying to install tensorflow following the steps here https://www.tensorflow.o
Creating the tensorflow env without the correct python version did not work for me. So I had to do the following, which worked...
>deactivate tensorflow # start by deactivating the existing tensorflow env
>conda env remove -n tensorflow # remove the env
>conda create -n tensorflow python=3.5
>activate tensorflow
