title: Pytorch beginner : tensor.new method
body: <p>everyone, I have a small question. </p>
  
  <p>What is the purpose of the method <code>tensor.new(..)</code> in Pytorch, I didn't find anything in the documentation. It looks like it creates a new Tensor (like the name suggests), but why we don't just use <code>torch.Tensor</code> constructors instead of using this new method that requires an existing tensor.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance.</p>
