square

paddle. square ( x, name=None ) [source]

Square each elements of the inputs.

\[out = x^2\]
Parameters
  • x (Tensor) – Input of Square operator, an N-D Tensor, with data type float32, float64 or float16.

  • name (str, optional) – Name for the operation (optional, default is None). For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

Tensor. Output of Square operator, a Tensor with shape same as input.

Examples

>>> import paddle

>>> x = paddle.to_tensor([-0.4, -0.2, 0.1, 0.3])
>>> out = paddle.square(x)
>>> print(out)
