utils.safe_mkdir('checkpoints') doesn't exist

[Zardoua-Yassir]

Hi!
When I run this command utils.safe_mkdir('checkpoints'), Python throws AttributeError: module 'utils' has no attribute 'safe_mkdir'. I found this command in this Stanford Github repo: https://github.com/chiphuyen/stanford-tensorflow-tutorials/blob/master/examples/07_convnet_mnist.py.

There is another weird command (utils.get_mnist_dataset), which made me think that these are custom functions added to the utils package. If this is the case, why would they do that instead of creating the function somewhere else?

I think you're barking at the wrong tree :)
This library has never had a safe_mkdir function. You're looking for this file: https://github.com/chiphuyen/stanford-tensorflow-tutorials/blob/master/examples/utils.py

My guess is that you need to change your PYTHONPATH environment variable to include the examples directory
