When reading through pytorch documentation/codes, one can quickly notice the habit of typing ‘torch’ in full many times instead of using a 2-letter abbreviation such as np for numpy or tf for tensorflow. Of course, you’re free to use whatever abbreviation you want or none at all, but I think it would be better if the pytorch community agreed on a standard convention that is used and seen across all codes/documents. Two possibilities come to mind are:

import torch as pt       # pt for pytorch
import torch as tc       # tc for torch, using the 1st and 4th letters from torch, similar to np for numpy

Any thoughts?
