There is the following issue on this page: https://docs.pytorch.org/cppdocs/api/classat_1_1_tensor.html#_CPPv4N2at6TensorE

This documentation really is unhelpful. Most of the methods have nothing but a basic signature, some of the methods are hidden in the TensorBase class that is completely undocumented. There are functions mentioned in deprecation message that aren't themselves documented at all (scalar_type, for instance). Moreover, a lot of internal methods (prefixed with _) are included in the documentation, which really bloats the page and makes it difficult to find the actually useful public API functions. I'm trying to write a C++ extension for torch, and the lack of good documentation on the C++ API makes this very frustrating. (Also, the torch source repository is very difficult to understand!)
