Welcome to the TensorFlow tutorial! TensorFlow is an open-source software library for dataflow and differentiable programming across a range of tasks. It is widely used for machine learning and deep learning applications.
Getting Started
Before you start, make sure you have Python installed on your system. TensorFlow is a Python library, so you will need Python to run TensorFlow code.
Once Python is installed, you can install TensorFlow using pip:
pip install tensorflow
Basic Concepts
Here are some of the basic concepts you should be familiar with before diving into TensorFlow:
- Tensor: A tensor is a multi-dimensional array.
- Graph: A graph is a series of nodes and edges. Nodes represent operations, and edges represent tensors.
- Session: A session is an execution environment for a graph.
Example
Here's a simple example of a TensorFlow program:
import tensorflow as tf
# Create a constant tensor
a = tf.constant([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
# Create a matrix multiplication operation
b = tf.matmul(a, a)
# Start a TensorFlow session
with tf.Session() as sess:
# Run the matrix multiplication operation
result = sess.run(b)
print(result)
This program creates a constant tensor, performs matrix multiplication, and prints the result.
