The code shown above when run in a jupyter notebook stops with a kernel needs to restart
message a screenshot that I have attached. I am not sure why, it seems to run and and stall citing
certain tensorflow libraries libraries are missing when i run in the command line of jupyter notebook.
I installed tensorflow even though my laptop only has a Radeon processor. I know that current tensorflow defaults to the cpu version if the software does not detect an NVIDA GPU.

Again, why does this software not run to the end. It is not my coding it is from a
exercise shown here in this link:

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Respectfully,
