[docs]class Categorical(Distribution):
r"""
Creates a categorical distribution parameterized by either :attr:`probs` or
:attr:`logits` (but not both).
.. note::
It is equivalent to the distribution that :func:`torch.multinomial`
samples from.
Samples are integers from :math:`\{0, \ldots, K-1\}` where `K` is ``probs.size(-1)``.
If `probs` is 1-dimensional with length-`K`, each element is the relative probability
of sampling the class at that index.
If `probs` is N-dimensional, the first N-1 dimensions are treated as a batch of
relative probability vectors.
.. note:: The `probs` argument must be non-negative, finite and have a non-zero sum,
and it will be normalized to sum to 1 along the last dimension. :attr:`probs`
will return this normalized value.
The `logits` argument will be interpreted as unnormalized log probabilities
and can therefore be any real number. It will likewise be normalized so that
the resulting probabilities sum to 1 along the last dimension. :attr:`logits`
will return this normalized value.
See also: :func:`torch.multinomial`
Example::
>>> # xdoctest: +IGNORE_WANT("non-deterministic")
>>> m = Categorical(torch.tensor([ 0.25, 0.25, 0.25, 0.25 ]))
>>> m.sample() # equal probability of 0, 1, 2, 3

Args:
probs (Tensor): event probabilities
logits (Tensor): event log probabilities (unnormalized)
