Hello, in the final step of the training, it seems like Epoch 50 should have been printed out, but it stopped at Epoch 49.
Is that because for i in range(number), i only does 1 through number - 1? If that’s the case, should we not have run this through range(n_epochs+1)?
for epoch in range(n_epochs):
Epoch 49, step 23000

Hi @inposition ,

It is correct that it stopped at epoch 49, because the function range() generates 50 numbers, from 0 to 49.
Here is a link that explains in details on how the function range () works. You may find it helpful.

Thanks. That’s what I thought, I just didn’t understand why it starts at epoch 1 and ends at epoch 49. That’s 49 epochs ran total. Does it not show epoch 0?

Hi @inposition

My display may be different from yours. You can put a print statement just under the ‘For epoch’ loop to print out the value of epoch. That way, you can be sure how many epochs ran through in total.
