Function 1 - torch.randn()

This function creates a pytorch tensor of the given shape filled with random values from a normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 1 (also called the standard normal distribution).

# Example 1 - Creating a random vector
a = torch.randn(2)
a
tensor([-0.7021,  0.7412])

In this example, a tensor with shape 2 was created (containing random numbers)
