The itemize environment parameters [leftmargin=*, itemsep=1pt, parsep=0pt]
were appearing as visible text in the PDF because the enumitem package
wasn't loaded. This fix adds \usepackage{enumitem} to the preamble.
All itemized lists now format correctly with proper spacing and margins.

- Fix 14_profiling: Replace Tensor with Linear model in test_module, fix profile_forward_pass calls

All modules now pass their inline tests.
- Remove circular imports where modules imported from themselves
- Convert tinytorch.core imports to sys.path relative imports
- Only import dependencies that are actually used in each module
- Preserve documentation imports in markdown cells
- Use consistent relative path pattern across all modules
- Remove hardcoded absolute paths in favor of relative imports
Affected modules: 02_activations, 03_layers, 04_losses, 06_optimizers,
07_training, 09_spatial, 12_attention, 17_quantization
- Remove demonstrate_complex_computation_graph() function from Module 05 (autograd)
- Remove demonstrate_optimizer_integration() function from Module 06 (optimizers)
- Module 04 (losses) had no demonstration functions to remove
- Keep all core implementations and unit test functions intact
- Keep final test_module() function for integration testing
- All module tests continue to pass after cleanup(https://claude.ai/code)
This change ensures tests run immediately when developing modules but don't execute when modules are imported by other modules.
Changes:
- Protected all test executions with if __name__ == "__main__" blocks
- Unit tests run immediately after function definitions during development
- Module integration test (test_module()) runs at end when executed directly
- Updated module-developer.md with new testing patterns and examples
Benefits:
- Students see immediate feedback when developing (python module_dev.py runs all tests)
- Clean imports: later modules can import earlier ones without triggering tests
- Maintains educational flow: tests visible right after implementations
- Compatible with nbgrader and notebook environments
Tested:
- Module 01 runs all tests when executed directly ✓
- Importing Tensor from tensor_dev doesn't run tests ✓
- Cross-module imports work without test interference ✓
Removed complexity from Module 07 (training):
- Removed DemoModel and TestModel classes
- Unified all tests/demos to use single minimal MockModel
- Module now focuses purely on training infrastructure
What remains:
- Trainer class (the core training orchestrator)
- CosineSchedule (learning rate scheduling)
- clip_grad_norm (gradient clipping utility)
- Training loop mechanics and checkpointing
Impact:
- Cleaner, more focused module
- No distraction from model architecture
- Tests training infrastructure, not model building
- All tests still pass with simplified mocks
The module now teaches exactly what it should: how to train
models, not how to build them.
Major changes to module structure:
1. Updated module-developer.md with clear components-only rule
2. Removed Sequential container from Module 03 (layers)
3. Converted to manual layer composition for transparency
Philosophy:
- Modules build ATOMIC COMPONENTS (Tensor, Linear, ReLU, etc.)
- Milestones/Examples show EXPLICIT COMPOSITION
- Students SEE how their components connect
- No hidden abstractions or black boxes
Module 03 changes:
- REMOVED: Sequential class and tests (~200 lines)
- KEPT: Linear and Dropout as individual components
- UPDATED: Integration demos use manual composition
- Result: Students see explicit layer1.forward(x) calls
Module 07 changes:
- Simplified model classes to minimal test fixtures
- Removed complex neural network teaching examples
- Focus purely on training infrastructure
Impact:
- Clearer learning progression
- Students understand each component's role
- Milestones become showcases of student work
- No magic containers hiding the data flow
Removed redundant test calls from all modules:
- Eliminated verbose if __name__ == '__main__': blocks
- Removed duplicate individual test calls
- Each module now simply calls test_module() directly
Changes made to all 9 modules:
- Module 01 (Tensor): Simplified from 16-line main block to 1 line
- Module 02 (Activations): Simplified from 13-line main block to 1 line
- Module 03 (Layers): Simplified from 17-line main block to 1 line
- Module 04 (Losses): Simplified from 20-line main block to 1 line
- Module 05 (Autograd): Simplified from 19-line main block to 1 line
- Module 06 (Optimizers): Simplified from 17-line main block to 1 line
- Module 07 (Training): Simplified from 16-line main block to 1 line
- Module 08 (DataLoader): Simplified from 17-line main block to 1 line
- Module 09 (Spatial): Simplified from 14-line main block to 1 line
Impact:
- Notebook-friendly: Tests run immediately in Jupyter environments
- No redundancy: test_module() already runs all unit tests
- Cleaner code: ~140 lines of redundant code removed
- Better for students: Simpler, more direct execution flow
Wrapped test code in if __name__ == '__main__': guards for:
- Module 02 (activations): 7 test calls protected
- Module 03 (layers): 7 test calls protected
- Module 04 (losses): 10 test calls protected
- Module 05 (autograd): 7 test calls protected
- Module 06 (optimizers): 8 test calls protected
- Module 07 (training): 7 test calls protected
- Module 09 (spatial): 5 test calls protected
Impact:
- All modules can now be imported cleanly without test execution
- Tests still run when modules are executed directly
- Clean dependency chain throughout the framework
- Follows Python best practices for module structure
This completes the fix for the entire module system. Modules can now
properly import from each other without triggering test code execution.

- Added tito setup command for environment setup and package installation
- Added numeric shortcuts: tito 01, tito 02, etc. for quick module access
- Fixed view command to find dev files correctly
- Updated module dependencies and references
- Improved user experience: immediate ML learning instead of boring setup
