Torch7 Library.
===============

Torch7 provides a Matlab-like environment for state-of-the-art machine
learning algorithms. It is easy to use and provides a very efficient
implementation, thanks to an easy and fast scripting language (Lua) and a
underlying C implementation.

In order to install Torch7 you can follow these simple instructions, but 
we suggest reading the detailed manual at http://www.torch.ch/manual/install/index
