Not able to import tensorflow_datasets module in jupyter notebook

enter image description here I am trying tensorflow course from Udacity which uses google colab to write/run the code. But I want to run the code on my local machine and hence have created a new environment to run the code , but am unable to import tensorflow_dataset into the tensorflow environment .

I have tried searching for the module from the anaconda navigator to install it in tensorflow environment but anaconda navigator does not provide the tensorflow datasets module.

From cmd (command prompt) I tried to execute the below commands 1.activate tensorflow 2. pip install tensorflow_datasets

It says the module is installed but when I tried to import it from jupyter notebook I get error that there is no module with name tensorflow_datasets

1.activate tensorflow 2. pip install tensorflow_datasets

import tensorflow_datasets as tfds

----> 1 import tensorflow_datasets as tfds

ImportError: No module named 'tensorflow_datasets'

And if I am trying to import from tensorflow env 1.jupyter notebook 2.import tensorflow_datasets as tdfs

tensorflow_datasets is a separate module. You can install it using pip :

pip install tensorflow_datasets

Then you can import it as:

import tensorflow_datasets as tfds
