While reading, I noticed a couple of minor inconsistencies that I thought might be helpful to point out for future editions or errata listings.
# Framework Reference Mismatch
In the section that reads:
"ML is a technique that enables us to do this, but to get started, we’ll need a framework—that’s where TensorFlow enters the picture. In the next section, we’ll take a look at what TensorFlow is and how to install it."
The following section actually discusses PyTorch, not TensorFlow, which may be confusing to readers expecting a TensorFlow introduction.
# Installation Instructions Reference
Similarly, in another section:
"With Python, there are many ways to install frameworks, but the default one supported by the TensorFlow team is pip. So, in your Python environment, installing PyTorch is as easy as using this:"
The transition from a TensorFlow-specific statement to PyTorch installation instructions may benefit from clarification or rephrasing to avoid ambiguity.
These are minor issues, but I thought they might be worth noting to maintain the excellent clarity and consistency throughout the book.
Thank you again for your work—it's been a valuable resource.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change the references to 'TensorFlow' to read 'PyTorch' instead |

The aforementioned paragraphs mention the use of the framework 'Tensorflow', however it should be 'Pytorch'
Note from the Author or Editor:
Thank you! The original edition of the book was for TensorFlow, and when revising for PyTorch we missed a couple of non-technical references. We'll ensure this is updated for future versions. |
