name '_C' is not defined pytorch+jupyter notebook
Solution 1
You need Cython for pytorch to work:
pip3 install Cython
See this comment on the issue on github.
My understanding is that there is a library called _C.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
in site-packages/torch
which provides the shared object _C
and requires Cython. PyCharm provides Cython support whereas the Jupyter environment doesn't.
Solution 2
Restarting the kernel will solve the problem.

I have some code that uses pytorch, that runs fine from my IDE (pycharm).
For research, I tried to run it from a jupyter notebook.
The code in the notebook:
from algorithms import Argparser from algorithms import Session def main(): print("main started") args = Argparser.parse() session = Session(args) session.run()
The package looks like:
|-algorithms |---__init__.py |---Argparser.py |---Session.py |---<many more files that are being used by Session>.py
some of those files do
import torch
When running the code in the notebook, I get
NameError Traceback (most recent call last) in 1 from algorithms import Argparser ----> 2 from algorithms import Session 3 def main(): 4 print("main started") 5 args = Argparser.parse()
D:\git\stav\stav-rl\algorithms\Session.py in 12 13 ---> 14 from algorithms.Episode import Episode 15 from algorithms.Agent import Agent 16 import torch
D:\git\stav\stav-rl\algorithms\Episode.py in 1 author = 'Noam' 2 ----> 3 import torch 4 import numpy as np 5 import cv2
c:\anaconda3\envs\threadartrl\lib\site-packages\torch__init__.py in 84 from torch._C import * 85 ---> 86 all += [name for name in dir(C) 87 if name[0] != '' and 88 not name.endswith('Base')]
NameError: name '_C' is not defined
The error is on
from algorithms import Session-->...-->import torch
How can i get the code to run?
