# Torch Package Reference Manual #
[![Join the chat at https://gitter.im/torch/torch7](https://badges.gitter.im/Join%20Chat.svg)](https://gitter.im/torch/torch7?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/torch/torch7.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/torch/torch7)
__Torch__ is the main package in [Torch7](http://torch.ch) where data
structures for multi-dimensional tensors and mathematical operations
over these are defined. Additionally, it provides many utilities for
accessing files, serializing objects of arbitrary types and other
useful utilities.

## Torch Packages ##
* Tensor Library
* [Tensor](tensor.md) defines the _all powerful_ tensor object that provides multi-dimensional numerical arrays with type templating.
* [Mathematical operations](maths.md) that are defined for the tensor object types.
* [Storage](storage.md) defines a simple storage interface that controls the underlying storage for any tensor object.
* File I/O Interface Library
* [File](file.md) is an abstract interface for common file operations.
* [Disk File](diskfile.md) defines operations on files stored on disk.
* [Memory File](memoryfile.md) defines operations on stored in RAM.
* [Pipe File](pipefile.md) defines operations for using piped commands.
* [High-Level File operations](serialization.md) defines higher-level serialization functions.
* Useful Utilities
* [Timer](timer.md) provides functionality for _measuring time_.
* [Tester](tester.md) is a generic tester framework.
* [CmdLine](cmdline.md) is a command line argument parsing utility.
* [Random](random.md) defines a random number generator package with various distributions.
* Finally useful [utility](utility.md) functions are provided for easy handling of torch tensor types and class inheritance.
