 * <h3>Performance</h3>
 *
 * <p>Avoid passing message arguments that are expensive to compute; your code will always compute
 * them, even though they usually won't be needed. If you have such arguments, use the conventional
 * if/throw idiom instead.
 *
 * <p>Depending on your message arguments, memory may be allocated for boxing and varargs array
 * creation. However, the methods of this class have a large number of overloads that prevent such

// C API for TensorFlow.
//
// The API leans towards simplicity and uniformity instead of convenience
// since most usage will be by language specific wrappers.
//
// Conventions:
// * We use the prefix TF_ for everything in the API.
// * Objects are always passed around as pointers to opaque structs
//   and these structs are allocated/deallocated via the API.
