Trouble reading mnist with tensorflow

So apparently the Yann LeCun's website is down so the following lines for reading mnist with tensorflow don't seem to be working :

FROM tensorflow.examples.tutorials.mnist IMPORT input_data

mnist = input_data.read_data_sets("MNIST_data/", one_hot = true)

Any ideas how can i read the mnist without using these above lines?

You can access the website here: https://web.archive.org/web/20160117040036/http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/ - download the data, and read it in from a local copy...

Edit Here is a code example for reading a local mnist dataset

Ok guys i fixed my problem,my mistake was that i was extracting the files(to the \MNIST_data directory) from the .gz files where i should have left them as they were unextracted instead.Thanks for the help.

You can download the dataset individually and put it in the directory you created.Then the code can run normally. http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/
