PyTorch: Custom nn Modules
--------------------------

A third order polynomial, trained to predict :math:`y=\sin(x)` from :math:`-\pi`
to :math:`\pi` by minimizing squared Euclidean distance.

This implementation defines the model as a custom Module subclass. Whenever you
want a model more complex than a simple sequence of existing Modules you will
need to define your model this way.
