Error when i load data from a text file in python

Question

I am totally new to Linux, python, and tensorflow. I am having a problem to get a data from a separate text file. Python codings are as below.

import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np

xy=np.loadtxt('train.txt',unpack=True, dtype='float32')

x_data=xy[0:-1]
y_data=xy[-1];

print 'x',x_data
print 'y',y_data

and error messages are as below.

root@bu-R470-R420:/home/bu# source ~/tensorflow/bin/activate
tensorflow)root@bu-R470-R420:/home/bu# python -m tensorflow.linearLoad
Traceback (most recent call last):

    exec code in run_globals
  File "/root/tensorflow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tensorflow/linearLoad.py", line 5, in <module>
    xy=np.loadtxt('train.txt',unpack=True, dtype='float32')
  File "/root/tensorflow/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/lib/npyio.py", line 803, in loadtxt
    fh = iter(open(fname, 'U'))
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'train.txt'
(tensorflow)root@bu-R470-R420:/home/bu#

Since i have been using Windows OS, Coding in Linux is a quite nightmare. Please help me out.

Most likely you aren't working with the correct directory. First just try to open and read the file as plain text. Focus on getting the right path. — hpaulj

The IOError exception you are receiving means the file train.txt doesn't exist in the relative path.

The error message clearly shows it:

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'train.txt'

Double check the file train.txt is present in the folder from which you are running your script, /home/bu in your case.
