<p>You can use pip to install PaddlePaddle with a single command, supports
CentOS 6 above, Ubuntu 14.04 above or MacOS 10.12, with Python 2.7 installed.
Simply run the following command to install, the version is cpu_avx_openblas:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>pip install paddlepaddle
</pre></div>
</div>
</div></blockquote>
<p>If you need to install GPU version (cuda7.5_cudnn5_avx_openblas), run:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>pip install paddlepaddle-gpu
</pre></div>
</div>
</div></blockquote>
