Copying the exact error while running captcha_records.py

(tensorenviron) C:\Work\captcha_recognize-master>python captcha_records.py
Looking for images in './data/train_data'

Writing ./data\train.tfrecords

you can rewrite it as:
..................................................
#num_examples = len(data_set)
for image,label in data_set:
#image = data_set[index][0]
height = image.shape[0]
width = image.shape[1]
image_raw = image.tostring()
#label = data_set[index][1]
........................................................................

I had met the same problem. I sovled it successfully by using the function: list()：
......
data_set = list(data_set) # just add this line
num_examples = len(data_set)
......
