Thank for reporting, this is probably a bug of Taichi. What's your output of running these commands:

echo LANG $LANG
echo LC_ALL $LC_ALL
locale

?

Does modifying /Library/Python/3.7/site-packages/taichi/core/util.py in line 55 from:

  return s.encode(locale.getdefaultlocale()[1])

to

  return s.encode()

fix the issue?

Thank for replying. Modifying util.py does not work. Follow the related issues,i fixed this error by exporting environment variables.

Great! Would you mind tell me what's your original value of that two environment variables?

Of course. The output is : LANG LC_ALL LANG="" LC_COLLATE="C" LC_CTYPE="UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_MONETARY="C" LC_NUMERIC="C" LC_TIME="C" LC_ALL=
