torch.layout类型

A torch.layout is an object that represents the memory layout of a torch.Tensor. 
Currently, we support torch.strided (dense Tensors) and have experimental 
support for torch.sparse_coo (sparse COO Tensors).
torch.layout的一个对象,该对象代表一个torch.Tensor类型的内存布局.当前我们支持
torch.strided (dense Tensors 密集张量),并且实验性支持
torch.sparse_coo (sparse COO Tensors  稀疏 COO 张量).

torch.strided represents dense Tensors and is the memory layout that is most commonly used. 
Each strided tensor has an associated torch.Storage, which holds its data. These tensors 
provide multi-dimensional, strided view of a storage. Strides are a list of integers: 
the k-th stride represents the jump in the memory necessary to go from one element to the 
next one in the k-th dimension of the Tensor. This concept makes it possible to perform 
many tensor operations efficiently.
torch.strided 表示密集张量(dense Tensors),并且是通常使用的内存布局.
每个带步长的张量都关联一个torch.Storage对象,该torch.Storage对象持有该张量的数据.这些张量提供
这个存储空间上数据的多维带步长的视图.步长是整数构成的列表.第k个步长的大小表示的是在这个张量上的
第k维度上移动一个位置对应到内存空间上所需要移动的长度.这个概念非常有利于许多张量操作执行得更高效.

Example:  例子:

>>> x = torch.Tensor([[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8, 9, 10]])
>>> x.stride()
(5, 1)

>>> x.t().stride()
(1, 5)
