Answer 1

According to TF 1:1 Symbols Map, in TF 2.0 you should use tf.compat.v1.Session() instead of tf.Session()

To get TF 1.x like behaviour in TF 2.0 one can run

import tensorflow.compat.v1 as tf
tf.disable_v2_behavior()

but then one cannot benefit of many improvements made in TF 2.0. For more details please refer to the migration guide https://www.tensorflow.org/guide/migrate
