## 📚 What You'll Build
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Tensor Class
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Creating tensors
|
||||
x = Tensor([[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0]])
|
||||
y = Tensor([[0.5, 1.5], [2.5, 3.5]])
|
||||
|
||||
# Properties
|
||||
print(x.shape) # (2, 2)
|
||||
print(x.size) # 4
|
||||
print(x.dtype) # float64
|
||||
|
||||
# Element-wise operations
|
||||
z = x + y # Addition
|
||||
w = x * y # Multiplication
|
||||
p = x ** 2 # Exponentiation
|
||||
|
||||
# Shape manipulation
|
||||
reshaped = x.reshape(4, 1) # (4, 1)
|
||||
transposed = x.T # (2, 2) transposed
|
||||
|
||||
# Reductions
|
||||
total = x.sum() # Scalar sum
|
||||
means = x.mean(axis=0) # Mean along axis
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Essential Operations
|
||||
- **Arithmetic**: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, powers
|
||||
- **Shape management**: Reshape, transpose, broadcasting rules
|
||||
- **Reductions**: Sum, mean, min, max along any axis
|
||||
- **Memory handling**: Efficient data storage and copying
|
||||
|
||||
## 🚀 Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites Check
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
tito checkpoint test 00 # Environment setup should pass ✅
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Workflow
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Navigate to tensor module
|
||||
cd modules/01_tensor
|
||||
|
||||
# Open development file
|
||||
jupyter lab tensor_dev.py
|
||||
# OR edit directly: code tensor_dev.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step-by-Step Implementation
|
||||
1. **Basic Tensor class** - Constructor and properties
|
||||
2. **Shape management** - Understanding tensor dimensions
|
||||
3. **Arithmetic operations** - Addition, multiplication, etc.
|
||||
4. **Utility methods** - Reshape, transpose, sum, mean
|
||||
5. **Error handling** - Robust edge case management
|
||||
|
||||
## 🧪 Testing Your Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Inline Testing
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Test in the notebook or Python REPL
|
||||
x = Tensor([[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0]])
|
||||
print(f"Shape: {x.shape}") # Should be (2, 2)
|
||||
print(f"Sum: {x.sum()}") # Should be 10.0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Module Tests
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Complete and export your tensor implementation
|
||||
tito module complete 01_tensor
|
||||
|
||||
# Test specific checkpoint
|
||||
tito checkpoint test 01 # Foundation checkpoint
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Verification
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Create and test tensors
|
||||
from tinytorch.core.tensor import Tensor
|
||||
|
||||
x = Tensor([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
|
||||
y = Tensor([2, 4, 6, 8, 10])
|
||||
|
||||
# Test operations
|
||||
assert (x + y).data.tolist() == [3, 6, 9, 12, 15]
|
||||
assert (x * 2).data.tolist() == [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
|
||||
print("✅ Basic operations working!")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Key Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
### **Tensors as Universal Data Structures**
|
||||
- **Scalars**: 0-dimensional tensors (single numbers)
|
||||
- **Vectors**: 1-dimensional tensors (arrays)
|
||||
- **Matrices**: 2-dimensional tensors (common in ML)
|
||||
- **Higher dimensions**: Images (3D), video (4D), etc.
|
||||
|
||||
### **Why Tensors Matter in ML**
|
||||
- **Neural networks**: All computations operate on tensors
|
||||
- **GPU acceleration**: operates on tensor primitives
|
||||
- **Broadcasting**: Efficient operations across different shapes
|
||||
- **Vectorization**: Process entire datasets simultaneously
|
||||
|
||||
### **Real-World Connections**
|
||||
- **PyTorch/TensorFlow**: Your implementation mirrors production frameworks
|
||||
- **NumPy**: Foundation for scientific computing (we build similar abstractions)
|
||||
- **Production systems**: Understanding tensors is essential for ML engineering
|
||||
|
||||
### **Memory and Performance**
|
||||
- **Data layout**: How tensors store data efficiently
|
||||
- **Broadcasting**: Smart operations without data copying
|
||||
- **View vs Copy**: Understanding memory management
|
||||
|
||||
