Hi, just starting! When installing I’m getting an error that I don’t know what it is.

> pip install torch
Requirement already satisfied: torch in ./miniconda3/envs/d2l/lib/python3.8/site-packages (1.8.1)

Hi, as at the time I window-shopped this book months ago, JAX was one of the frameworks listed. But now I can’t find it here again. Is there no longer support for JAX here?

Hello, I’m getting this error when executing pip install d2l==1.0.0b0

Can somebody help please ?

By the way it works well when I don’t specify the version of d2l that I want.

Hey, I bumped into the same problem. Looks it’s from this particular version of gym. If you would install a higher 0.22.0 version by running “pip install git+https://github.com/openai/gym.git@0.22.0”, and then run “pip install d2l==1.0.0b0” to continue the d2l installation, the error could be gone. but not sure if the gym of higher version will break the integrity of d2l 1.0.0 itself at some point.

Hello!!
Thank you very much. I will try this for sure

If you meet the error “python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.”, see this question: why-is-pip-install-gym-failing-with-python-setup-py-egg-info-did-not-run-succ

Thank you for the details; your steps helped resolve this for my similar installation problems.

41

This also worked for me, thank you.

42

It helped me a great deal! thx a lot

Great thanks.

Are there any plans to add MPS support? I bet a lot of people are reading (at least the early sections) using their Macs, me included

45

Just run conda deactivate to deactivate the current environment, no need to specify the environment name.

Hi, when I type “jupyter notebook” in the command prompt, I did not see any of the course folder in the localhost website. I only see my old ipynb files from past coursework. What should I do?

What are the pytorch installation instruction for devices with Intel Arc GPUs?

Instead of conda, I used uv. Initially I had problems installing torch=2.0.0 such as my Cuda version is 12.2. Thus, I used Python 3.9 with the following dependencies:

requires-python = ">=3.9"
dependencies = [
    "d2l>=1.0.3",
    "torch>=2.6.0",
    "torchaudio>=2.6.0",
    "torchvision>=0.21.0",
]

Anyone attempting to install d2l into a recent version of python will experience the same problems as PlacideKad above, due to explicit dependencies. Building the binary for the specified version is unlikely to work because of the removal of a deprecated feature in pkgutil. Python 3.12 can use numpy version 1.26+, so until there’s a new release, you can use:

pip install numpy==1.26.4 or pip install "numpy<2" and then install d2l with pip install --no-deps d2l. pip will complain about incompatibilities every time you run it, but the examples may still work. Or they may not. Ideally we would have a release that can work with numpy 2. There has not been a new release since August 2023, which makes me wonder.

i have the same issue, but i fixed it by turning python3.12 to python3.11.

How did you turn python 3.12 to python 3.11?
