tensorflow python 2.7交互式shell：函数调用失败

Question

I am studying udacity course: deep learning. Actually it teaches Google's tensorFlow. In Python interactive shell, I define the function softmax, when I invoke it, it says syntaxt error. Why? Any hint.

I have import numpy as np

>>> import numpy as np
>>> import tensorflow as tf
>>> def softmax(x):
...     return np.exp(x);
... softmax([1])
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Are there requirment exact number of indention space?

Answer 1

When using interactive, make sure that the ... is not there. The compiler will include anything in ... in a function, method, while, or for block. To escape from the ... , just hit enter again and call the method from >>> .
