flip() in PyTorch

#pytorch #flip #reverse #function

flip() can get the 0D or more D tensor of reversed zero or more elements from the 0D or more D tensor of zero or more elements as shown below:

*Memos:

flip() can be used with torch or a tensor.
The 1st argument(input) with torch or using a tensor(Required-Type:tensor of int, float, complex or bool).
The 2nd argument with torch or the 1st or more arguments with a tensor are dims(Required-Type:int, tuple of int or list of int). *Each number must be unique.
