# sliceUpdateDataTensor(_:update:starts:ends:strides:name:)

Creates a strided-slice update operation with zero masks and returns the result tensor.

## Declaration

```swift
func sliceUpdateDataTensor(_ dataTensor: MPSGraphTensor, update updateTensor: MPSGraphTensor, starts: [NSNumber], ends: [NSNumber], strides: [NSNumber], name: String?) -> MPSGraphTensor
```

## Parameters

- `dataTensor`: The large tensor that will receive the update.
- `updateTensor`: The tensor with the new values that will replace values in the dataTensor.
- `starts`: An array of numbers that specify the starting points for each dimension.
- `ends`: An array of numbers that specify the ending points for each dimension.
- `strides`: An array of numbers that specify the strides for each dimension.
- `name`: The name for the operation.

## Return Value

Return Value A valid MPSGraphTensor object
