constant(name:value:)

Declaration

func constant<T>(name: String? = nil, value: T) -> BNNSGraph.Builder.Tensor<T> where T : BNNSScalar

Parameters

• name:

  The name of the tensor.

• value:

  The scalar value that the function copies into the compiled context.

Discussion

For example, the following code defines the tensor x that contains the single-precision scalar value 10.0:

       let context = try BNNSGraph.makeContext ({
           builder in

           let x = builder.constant(name: "x",
                                    value : Float(10))
           let y = builder.constant(name: "y",
                                    values : [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8] as [Float])

           let z = x + y

           return [z]
       })

       var results = [context.allocateTensor(argument: context.argumentNames()[0],
                                               fillKnownDynamicShapes: false)!]
       defer {
           results[0].deallocate()
       }
       try context.executeFunction(arguments: &results)

On return, the results[0] tensor contains the values [11.0, 12.0, 13.0, 14.0, 15.0, 16.0, 17.0, 18.0].
