Tensorflow's tf.Print to stdout instead of default stderr #TensorFlow

tf_print.py

"""
The default tf.Print op goes to STDERR
Use the function below to direct the output to stdout instead
Usage: 
> x=tf.ones([1, 2])
> y=tf.zeros([1, 3])
> p = x*x
> p = tf_print(p, [x, y], "hello")
> p.eval()
hello [[ 0.  0.]]
hello [[ 1.  1.]]
