To create a virtual environment, use the path virtualenv <path-to-venv-dir>, for example, virtualenv venv is quite common usage.

After, source your environment, install requirements using any requirements.txt files, and you will be good to go. To exit a virtual evironment, simply type decativate into your terminal.

virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
cd dcgan
