C4W2A2E2: Assertion Error

[hubort]

Hey Paul,

thanks for giving great advice - again and again
Thanks to your guidance, I found out that my Sequential Layer is missing.

I found this post of yours

Course 4 week 2 alpaca model how to pass the augmentation to the preprocessing

They are both functions which take an input tensor and produce an output tensor. The data augmentation step comes first and then the output of that is the input to the preprocessing step. Note that the data augmentation function is passed as a function reference, so you just use the name of the parameter, not the name of the actual function being passed in as the argument. The template code has lots of comments and other guidance. Please take another look with what I said above in mind and see …

explaining how the data_augmenter()-function works, yet I’m lacking any understanding on the topic.

In the step where data_augmenter() is called, it is not passed any argument, returning tf.keras.Sequential If I try passing it the inputs, the TypeError

TypeError: data_augmenter() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

Which is per definition correct - yet how I understand it, the function should take the inputs Tensor as an argument?

EDIT: Ok, I solved it, yet really don’t understand why. Paul, I would be glad if you would answer my private message I’ll write you.
