For dumb people like me, it would be nice having a README.md also for this repository :wink: I have no idea of how I could use this Standalone C TH library...

Hi, Yep, it is coming soon. Basically:

Great! It would be really nice to being able to start understanding more about the core of this project :alien:

| I made TH a "git subtree" of this git in the torch7 git Doesn't that mean the commits to TH in torch7 repo automatically get pushed here? Looks like the THDiskFile.c commit that we just pushed didn't get updated here?

andresy commented 10 years ago

Nope, you have to to a git subtree pull/push manually -- will do this once in a while

soumith commented 10 years ago

ah i see, got it.

Re: title of this issue, I too am curious what is this repository.

soumith commented 9 years ago

This is just a git subtree of torch/lib/TH Its the C library that powers torch

soumith commented 9 years ago

Similarly, cutorch/lib/THC powers cuda torch, again a library with a pure-C API

hughperkins commented 9 years ago

This is like the C/CPU implementation of Tensor, Storage etc? And then for example THC is the CUDA implementation?

hughperkins commented 9 years ago

Ah. Ok :-) Thanks! :-)

Atcold commented 9 years ago

@andresy, how's coming up the documentation? :)

soumith commented 9 years ago

@Atcold will come when it comes :) not much progress on documenting TH

Atcold commented 9 years ago

OK :disappointed:

hughperkins commented 9 years ago

Hmmm, so what is https://github.com/torch/torch7/tree/master/lib/TH directory? How do they compare? I guess you are refactorizing, and the refactor is still in progress? Seems like distro https://github.com/torch/distro/tree/master/pkg references the torch7 repo version?

hughperkins commented 9 years ago

started to document TH and THC at https://github.com/hughperkins/clnn/blob/master/doc/torch/torch.md , but not sure if this is reusable at all? More like personal notes I think? (which is what they are, of course...)
