[DO NOT USE] v0.8.6

latest releases: v1.7.1, v1.7.0, v1.6.0...
2 years ago

Notes:

We added a function to periodically check version information on ti.init to remind users if a new version has been released. However, this function is not fully tested when 0.8.6 is released, and the error handling is not well-implemented. Taichi crashes when it fails to check the version (maybe due to network issues). For this reason, 0.8.6 is removed from the official releases in PyPI. Please upgrade to a newer version if you are on this version. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
