AI-written overview

What is it?

SlowTorch: Implementation of PyTorch from the ground up in 100% pure Python is in our Neural Network build group, a list of tutorials about building a tiny learning program from scratch. We only know the title, short description and level from our list.

Is it for me?

It is for people who know some programming and some maths. Most items are Intermediate or Advanced, so it suits about age teen+ and up.

Grown-ups: this is a maths-heavy topic. It is fine to watch an explanation first.

How to start

  1. Pick a tutorial in a language you know.
  2. Open it with a grown-up and read the first step.
  3. Run the smallest example and see its output.

How much time?

Plan about 80 minutes at a time over about 10 sessions. (estimate)

80 min per session 10 sessions estimate

A plan you can follow

  1. Day 1 40 min Read the intro.
  2. Week 1 90 min Build a one-neuron example.
  3. Week 2 90 min Train it on a tiny data set.
  4. Week 3 60 min Change a setting and see what happens.

Times are estimates. Go at your own speed.
