Step 1: Download the NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit
I have Ubuntu 18.04.2 x64 (64 bit), NVIDIA Driver 415, so I downloaded CUDA 10.0.130. You can download latest CUDA from HERE or older versions HERE.
Step 2: Install repository meta-data
sudo dpkg -i <NAME_DOWNLOADED_TOOLKIT>
For example:
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu1804-10-0-local-10.0.130-410.48_1.0-1_amd64.deb
Step 3: Installing the CUDA public GPG key
To install the key, run this command:
sudo apt-key add /var/cuda-repo-<version>/7fa2af80.pub
For example:
sudo apt-key add /var/cuda-repo-10-0-local-10.0.130-410.48/7fa2af80.pub
Step 3:
sudo apt-get update
Step 4:
sudo apt-get install cuda
Post-installation Actions
Some actions must be taken after the installation before the CUDA Toolkit and Driver can be used.
Update the PATH variable to include the CUDA binaries folder. To update it, we need to edit the file /etc/environment. I use the nano text editor in this post, so the command would be:

sudo nano /etc/environment
After editing this line press Ctrl + X to exit the editor and press Y when prompted whether you want to save it.
This method of editing the PATH variable usually requires a reboot to take effect. However executing the below command would update the PATH variable immediately.
source /etc/environment
Alternatively you can also execute the command nvidia-smi in the terminal. This gives more detailed information about the drivers.
If you received error: Failed to initialize NVML: Driver/library version mismatch, surprise, rebooting solved the issue.
I don't know why, but after rebooting, my NVIDIA Driver downgraded to version 410.

Open application Software & Updates > Addtional Drivers, recheck Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-drive-415 (open source) (or other latest you have), click Apply Changes, reboot the computer and enjoy latest NVIDIA driver^^
Good luck!
