Requiring tensorflow with Python 2.7.11 occurs ImportError
<p>I tried <code>pip install tensorflow</code> on OS X El Capitan and it succeeded.
However, if I tried to import tensorflow, ImportError occured.
Please tell me when you know.</p>

<pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; import tensorflow
Traceback (most recent call last):

<p>I got the same question.
Try to follow the [official instruction] to install tensorflow: <a href="https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r0.11/get_started/os_setup.html#pip-installation" rel="nofollow">https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r0.11/get_started/os_setup.html#pip-installation</a></p>

<pre><code># Mac OS X
$ sudo easy_install pip
$ sudo easy_install --upgrade six
