Slice(T)
Inherits Comparable < Indexable::Mutable < Indexable < Enumerable < Iterable < Struct < Value < Object
A Slice is a Pointer with an associated size.
While a pointer is unsafe because no bound checks are performed when reading from and writing to it,
reading from and writing to a slice involve bound checks.
In this way, a slice is a safe alternative to Pointer.
A Slice can be created as read-only: trying to write to it
will raise. For example the slice of bytes returned by
String#to_slice is read-only.
Instance methods
Converts a standard library slice to a Tensor.
The type of Tensor is inferred from the element type, and alternative
shapes can be provided.
Arguments
- device :
Num::Storage- The storage backend on which to place theTensor - shape :
Array(Int32)?- An optional shape this slice represents
Examples
s = Slice.new(200) { |i| (i + 10).to_u8 }
typeof(s.to_tensor) # => Tensor(UInt8, CPU(Float32))
