<p>In the last few sections, we’ve been trying our best to do most of the work by hand. We’ve explored how tokenizers work and looked at tokenization, conversion to input IDs, padding, truncation, and attention masks.</p>
<p>However, as we saw in section 2, the 🤗 Transformers API can handle all of this for us with a high-level function that we’ll dive into here. When you call your <code>tokenizer</code> directly on the sentence, you get back inputs that are ready to pass through your model:</p>

<p>Here, the <code>model_inputs</code> variable contains everything that’s necessary for a model to operate well. For DistilBERT, that includes the input IDs as well as the attention mask. Other models that accept additional inputs will also have those output by the <code>tokenizer</code> object.</p>
<p>As we’ll see in some examples below, this method is very powerful. First, it can tokenize a single sequence:</p>

<p>The <code>tokenizer</code> object can handle the conversion to specific framework tensors, which can then be directly sent to the model. For example, in the following code sample we are prompting the tokenizer to return tensors from the different frameworks — <code>&quot;pt&quot;</code> returns PyTorch tensors, <code>&quot;tf&quot;</code> returns TensorFlow tensors, and <code>&quot;np&quot;</code> returns NumPy arrays:</p>

<p>The tokenizer added the special word <code>[CLS]</code> at the beginning and the special word <code>[SEP]</code> at the end. This is because the model was pretrained with those, so to get the same results for inference we need to add them as well. Note that some models don’t add special words, or add different ones; models may also add these special words only at the beginning, or only at the end. In any case, the tokenizer knows which ones are expected and will deal with this for you.</p>
