# MLComputePlan

A class representing the compute plan of a model.

## Declaration

```swift
class MLComputePlan
```

## Overview

Overview The application can use the compute plan to estimate the necessary cost and resources of the model before running the predictions. // Load the compute plan of an ML Program model. let computePlan = try await MLComputePlan.load(contentsOf: modelURL, configuration: configuration) guard case let .program(program) = computePlan.modelStructure else {    fatalError("Unexpected model type.") }  // Get the main function. guard let mainFunction = program.functions["main"] else {    fatalError("Missing main function.") }

let operations = mainFunction.block.operations for operation in operations {    // Get the compute device usage for the operation.    let computeDeviceUsage = computePlan.deviceUsage(for: operation)    // Get the estimated cost of executing the operation.    let estimatedCost = computePlan.estimatedCost(of: operation) }
