class detect_anomaly:
    r"""Context-manager that enable anomaly detection for the autograd engine.

    This does two things:

    - Running the forward pass with detection enabled will allow the backward
      pass to print the traceback of the forward operation that created the failing
      backward function.
    - If ``check_nan`` is ``True``, any backward computation that generate "nan"
      value will raise an error. Default ``True``.

    .. warning::
        This mode should be enabled only for debugging as the different tests
        will slow down your program execution.
