Tensorflow Import Error (compat.py_: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'integer'

I went through a tensorflow training and am trying to use tensorflow for a research project, but I am unable to import it into my program even though I successfully installed it using Anaconda. I am using a Mac 10.13.5. Whenever I try to import tensorflow, I keep receiving this error: AttributeError: ‘module’ object has no attribute ‘integer’ in the tensorflow file compat.py. The error is at line 129 of this file:

Can anyone help me resolve this so that I can use tensorflow…

Thank you.

Check if numpy is installed, it probably is, try to reinstall it. (I am more familiar with pip but anaconda surely has some force install option).

Edit: Well, I am not bring more info than the answer on StackOverflow, I would recommend you to use a virtualenv with no local packages to help you control more carefully what is required/installed.
