Tensor vs list in week 2 assignemn masked accuracy function

Course Q&A Natural Language Processing NLP with Sequence Models

hello
the function definition states that the variable passed are tensors.
however when testing, lists are used. do we need to convert the lists to tensors for the execution. why are you not testing with tensors?

Parameters:
y_true (tensor): True labels.
y_pred (tensor): Predicted logits.

Part of your solution is to use tf.cast and this function can convert arrays into tensorflow tensors, thats why they are inputing lists there.

that what i did. but too be honest it is misleading when the documentation states that it is tf.
I appreciate to quick response. Thank you.

Misleading, maybe, but tensors is also another name for matrices, lists arrays…
