While running a sentdex tutorial script of a cryptocurrency RNN, link here

YouTube Tutorial: Cryptocurrency-predicting RNN Model,

but have encountered an error when attempting to train the model. My tensorflow version is 2.0.0 and I'm running python 3.6. When attempting to train the model I receive the following error:

File "C:\python36-64\lib\site-packages\tensorflow_core\python\keras\engine\training.py", line 734, in fit
    use_multiprocessing=use_multiprocessing)

File "C:\python36-64\lib\site-packages\tensorflow_core\python\keras\engine\training_v2.py", line 224, in fit
    distribution_strategy=strategy)

File "C:\python36-64\lib\site-packages\tensorflow_core\python\keras\engine\training_v2.py", line 497, in _process_training_inputs
    adapter_cls = data_adapter.select_data_adapter(x, y)

File "C:\python36-64\lib\site-packages\tensorflow_core\python\keras\engine\data_adapter.py", line 628, in select_data_adapter
    _type_name(x), _type_name(y)))

ValueError: Failed to find data adapter that can handle input: <class 'numpy.ndarray'>, (<class 'list'> containing values of types {"<class 'numpy.float64'>"})

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Have you checked whether your training/testing data and training/testing labels are all numpy arrays? It might be that you're mixing numpy arrays with lists.
