MAJOR: Implement beautiful module progression through strategic reordering
This commit implements the pedagogically optimal "inevitable discovery" module progression based on expert validation and educational design principles. ## Module Reordering Summary **Previous Order (Problems)**: - 05_losses → 06_autograd → 07_dataloader → 08_optimizers → 09_spatial → 10_training - Issues: Autograd before optimizers, DataLoader before training, scattered dependencies **New Order (Beautiful Progression)**: - 05_losses → 06_optimizers → 07_autograd → 08_training → 09_spatial → 10_dataloader - Benefits: Each module creates inevitable need for the next ## Pedagogical Flow Achieved **05_losses** → "Need systematic weight updates" → **06_optimizers** **06_optimizers** → "Need automatic gradients" → **07_autograd** **07_autograd** → "Need systematic training" → **08_training** **08_training** → "MLPs hit limits on images" → **09_spatial** **09_spatial** → "Training is too slow" → **10_dataloader** ## Technical Changes ### Module Directory Renaming - `06_autograd` → `07_autograd` - `07_dataloader` → `10_dataloader` - `08_optimizers` → `06_optimizers` - `10_training` → `08_training` - `09_spatial` → `09_spatial` (no change) ### System Integration Updates - **MODULE_TO_CHECKPOINT mapping**: Updated in tito/commands/export.py - **Test directories**: Renamed module_XX directories to match new numbers - **Documentation**: Updated all references in MD files and agent configurations - **CLI integration**: Updated next-steps suggestions for proper flow ### Agent Configuration Updates - **Quality Assurance**: Updated module audit status with new numbers - **Module Developer**: Updated work tracking with new sequence - **Documentation**: Updated MASTER_PLAN_OF_RECORD.md with beautiful progression ## Educational Benefits 1. **Inevitable Discovery**: Each module naturally leads to the next 2. **Cognitive Load**: Concepts introduced exactly when needed 3. **Motivation**: Students understand WHY each tool is necessary 4. **Synthesis**: Everything flows toward complete ML systems understanding 5. **Professional Alignment**: Matches real ML engineering workflows ## Quality Assurance - ✅ All CLI commands still function - ✅ Checkpoint system mappings updated - ✅ Documentation consistency maintained - ✅ Test directory structure aligned - ✅ Agent configurations synchronized **Impact**: This reordering transforms TinyTorch from a collection of modules into a coherent educational journey where each step naturally motivates the next, creating optimal conditions for deep learning systems understanding.

TODO: Implement matrix multiplication using explicit loops.

|

STEP-BY-STEP IMPLEMENTATION:
|
||||
1. Extract numpy arrays from both tensors using .data
|
||||
2. Perform matrix multiplication: result_data = a_data @ b_data
|
||||
3. Wrap result in a new Tensor and return
|
||||
2. Check tensor shapes for compatibility
|
||||
3. Use triple-nested loops to show every operation
|
||||
4. Wrap result in a new Tensor and return
|
||||
|
||||
LEARNING CONNECTIONS:
|
||||
- This is the core operation in Dense layers: output = input @ weights
|
||||
- PyTorch uses optimized BLAS libraries for this operation
|
||||
- GPU implementations parallelize this across thousands of cores
|
||||
- Understanding this operation is key to neural network performance
|
||||
- Shows the fundamental computation before optimization
|
||||
- Module 15 will demonstrate the progression to high-performance implementations
|
||||
- Understanding loops helps appreciate vectorization and GPU parallelization
|
||||
|
||||
EDUCATIONAL APPROACH:
|
||||
- Intentionally simple for understanding, not performance
|
||||
- Makes every multiply-add operation explicit
|
||||
- Sets up Module 15 to show optimization techniques

- Use the @ operator for clean matrix multiplication

- Ensure you return a Tensor, not a numpy array
