    Constructs a nested tensor preserving autograd history from :attr:`tensor_list` a list of tensors.

    .. note::
        Tensors within the list are always copied by this function due to current nested tensor semantics.

    Args:
        tensor_list (List[Tensor]): a list of tensors with the same ndim

    Keyword arguments:
        dtype (:class:`torch.dtype`, optional): the desired type of returned nested tensor.
            Default: if None, same :class:`torch.dtype` as leftmost tensor in the list.
        device (:class:`torch.device`, optional): the desired device of returned nested tensor.
            Default: if None, same :class:`torch.device` as leftmost tensor in the list

    Example::

        >>> a = torch.arange(3, dtype=torch.float, requires_grad=True)
        >>> b = torch.arange(5, dtype=torch.float, requires_grad=True)

to_padded_tensor(input, padding, output_size=None, out=None) -> Tensor

Returns a new (non-nested) Tensor by padding the :attr:`input` nested tensor.
The leading entries will be filled with the nested data,
while the trailing entries will be padded.

.. warning::

    :func:`to_padded_tensor` always copies the underlying data,
    since the nested and the non-nested tensors differ in memory layout.

Args:
    padding (float): The padding value for the trailing entries.

Keyword args:
    output_size (Tuple[int]): The size of the output tensor.
                              If given, it must be large enough to contain all nested data;
                              else, will infer by taking the max size of each nested sub-tensor along each dimension.
    out (Tensor, optional): the output tensor.

nested_tensor(tensor_list, *, dtype=None, device=None, requires_grad=False, pin_memory=False) -> Tensor

Constructs a nested tensor with no autograd history (also known as a “leaf tensor”, see
:ref:`Autograd mechanics <autograd-mechanics>`) from :attr:`tensor_list` a list of tensors.

Args:
    tensor_list (List[array_like]): a list of tensors, or anything that can be passed to torch.tensor,
    where each element of the list has the same dimensionality.

Keyword arguments:
    dtype (:class:`torch.dtype`, optional): the desired type of returned nested tensor.
        Default: if None, same :class:`torch.dtype` as leftmost tensor in the list.
    device (:class:`torch.device`, optional): the desired device of returned nested tensor.
        Default: if None, same :class:`torch.device` as leftmost tensor in the list
    requires_grad (bool, optional): If autograd should record operations on the
        returned nested tensor. Default: ``False``.
    pin_memory (bool, optional): If set, returned nested tensor would be allocated in
        the pinned memory. Works only for CPU tensors. Default: ``False``.

Example::

    >>> a = torch.arange(3, dtype=torch.float, requires_grad=True)
    >>> b = torch.arange(5, dtype=torch.float, requires_grad=True)
    >>> nt = torch.nested.nested_tensor([a, b], requires_grad=True)
    >>> nt.is_leaf
    True
