How to set up theano config

Question

I\'m new to Theano. Trying to set up a config file.

First of all, I notice that I have no .theanorc file:

Theano does not create any configuration file by itself, but has default values for all its configuration flags. You only need such a file if you want to modify the default values.

This can be done by creating a .theanorc file in your home directory. For example, if you want floatX to be always float32, you can do this:

echo -e "\n[global]\nfloatX=float32\n" >> ~/.theanorc

under Linux and Mac. Under windows, this can also be done. See this page for more details:
