RuntimeError: can't assign a str to a scalar value of type int

[Damonhaus]

When I sample the model with command:

python visualize.py -seq_length 1000 -cuda -load_model mlstm_ns.pt -temperature 0.4 -neuron 2388 -init "I couldn't figure out"

and the process returned an error:

does the code can't run on python-2.7 or other problem?

thanks a lot.

The code was written in python 3.5 and I suspect the problem comes from the differences in string handling between python 2.7 and 3.5

@Damonhaus To use in Python 2, change the batchify function for this:

def batchify(data, bsz):
    ids = torch.LongTensor([ord(char) for char in data.encode()])
    nbatch = ids.size(0) // bsz
    ids = ids.narrow(0, 0, nbatch * bsz)
    ids = ids.view(bsz, -1).t().contiguous()
    return ids
