blocked_representation ====================== A blocked_representation is a representation that indicates the concatentation of multiple identical representations; it is therefore used to produce layers that act partly or wholly as a parallel set of homogeneous layers. set_element =========== some_br set_element a_rep Set the representation that is (conceptually) internally repeated in `some_br` to be `a_rep`. number ====== some_br number an_int Set the number of repetitions of `some_br` to be `an_int`. block ===== some_br block an_int a_rep Set the representation and number simultaneously. element ======= some_br element Return the representation that is conceptually repeated to produce `some_br`
