DL4 -Week1 assignment 1:ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together with shapes (1,3,3,4) (3,3,4,1)

So that must mean that there is something wrong in how you are managing the “slicing” of the various arrays in your conv_forward logic. The bug is not in conv_single_step, right? It’s that you passed mismatching arguments to it.

I added a bunch of print statements to my conv_forward logic and here’s what I see when I run the test case for that:

stride 2 pad 1
New dimensions = 3 by 4
Shape Z = (2, 3, 4, 8)
Shape A_prev_pad = (2, 7, 9, 4)
Z[0,0,0,0] = -2.651123629553914
Z[1,2,3,7] = 0.4427056509973153
Z's mean =
 0.5511276474566768
Z[0,2,1] =
 [-2.17796037  8.07171329 -0.5772704   3.36286738  4.48113645 -2.89198428
 10.99288867  3.03171932]
cache_conv[0][1][2][3] =
 [-1.1191154   1.9560789  -0.3264995  -1.34267579]

Second Test: All tests passed!

Have a look at the corresponding dimensions you are seeing and maybe that will give you a clue as to where the problem is.
