I’ve set up PyCharm on my M1 machine as per the exam handbook’s instructions.
However, running the script below:
import tensorflow as tf
print(tf.version)
Gives this error: Process finished with exit code 132 (interrupted by signal 4: SIGILL)
From my google search, the exam’s version of TensorFlow seems incompatible with my machine.
But the handbook was very strict about the tensorflow version - otherwise the grader won’t work.
How do I resolve this?
To offer context, my macOS is version 11.4 with the M1 chip.

I’ve tried both intel and the apple silicon versions of Pycharm Community.
The command “python3 --version” successfully shows python 3.8.6 (3.8.x is required for exam)
I’ve tried installing the apple tensorflow for 11.x os versions.

All return the same error.
