installing hopfield-layers file on colab

[awlayaa]

Hi
when I run this repository on colab, as:
!pip3 install git+https://github.com/ml-jku/hopfield-layers

the next lines showed up:
Collecting git+https://github.com/ml-jku/hopfield-layers

ERROR: Package 'hopfield-layers' requires a different Python: 3.7.12 not in '>=3.8.0'

how can I fix it?

@awlayaa :
Can you use anaconda , create a python3.8 environment, and then try it;

Hi @awlayaa,

as @chumingqian already pointed out, the Python version you are using is too old. You need to use at least version 3.8.0. The corresponding setup file lists more information on the required packages. The documentation of the Python distribution you are using should give you more information on how to get a specific Python version.
