Core classes and functions for nodes.

This subpackage is separated into separate files to reduce the complexity of understanding the definitions.

For a user, all relevant functions and names should be exposed here.

The basic functionality of a node in a directed graph is defined in node_functions.py as _NodeMethods.

To augment this, the registration of dunder methods is implemented in algebra.py.

Combining these, base.py defines many of the core node classes.

the multi.py module goes on to define a particular core class of import, the MultiNode, which itself represents a single pytorch computation which returns multiple tensors.

Last but not least is definition_helpers, which contains optional features which help to simplify the creation nodes using flexible parent types.

Modules

algebra	Machinery for nodes to support native python operators such as addition, multiplication, subtraction.
base	Base nodes for sublcassing.
definition_helpers	Tools for organizing node definitions.
multi	A base node that provides several output tensors.
node_functions	Here we define some of the core operations for Nodes in the directed acyclic graph associated with a computation.
