Mismatch in required GraphLab Create version #17

Closed znation closed 8 years ago

In the course materials for Course 3 Classification (pre-quiz on week 2) it says:

Make sure that you are using GraphLab Create 1.8.3. See this post for installing the correct version of GraphLab Create.

But inside the notebook itself it says:

Make sure you have the latest version of GraphLab Create. Upgrade by pip install graphlab-create --upgrade See this page for detailed instructions on upgrading.

The latest version of GraphLab Create is 1.9. Which version is required for this course -- either? If we are going to be this explicit about version it should agree in both places.

A topic was posted about module-5-decision-tree-assignment-1.ipynb in the Course 3 discussion forums: https://www.coursera.org/learn/ml-classification/discussions/weeks/3/threads/xUmEgCt7Eeakfw5ltszKlw There may be slight differences in results when using GLC 1.9 (I haven't verified, though).

Another thread came up regarding which GLC version to use: https://www.coursera.org/learn/ml-classification/discussions/weeks/2/threads/lvc4xi1wEeaKAhJC1hWxEQ

Now that it is no longer possible to downgrade to 1.8.3, there have been a few threads in the discussion forums asking about this:

We finished testing all notebooks with GraphLab Create 2.1. All references to 1.8.3 have been removed.
