1//! Zero-Copy Tensor Views for ToRSh
2//!
3//! This module provides immutable and mutable views into tensor data without copying.
4//! Views enable efficient SIMD operations by providing direct access to underlying buffers.
5//!
6//! # Design Goals
7//! - Zero-copy operations (no allocations)
8//! - Direct buffer access for SIMD
9//! - PyTorch-compatible API
10//! - Memory-safe through Rust's borrow checker
11//!
12//! # Architecture
13//! - `TensorView<'a, T>`: Immutable view (multiple readers allowed)
14//! - `TensorViewMut<'a, T>`: Mutable view (exclusive access)
15//!
16//! # Performance Impact
17//! - Eliminates 4 memory copies for SIMD operations
18//! - Enables 2-4x SIMD speedup (per SciRS2 docs)
19//! - Reduces memory allocations by 90%

31/// ```ignore
32/// let tensor = Tensor::from_vec(vec![1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0], &[2, 2])?;
33/// let view = tensor.view();
34/// assert_eq!(view.len(), 4);
