    "Iterating over a dataloader in a separate function will not affect its state in the main training loop. In PyTorch, a DataLoader is typically an iterable that can be iterated over multiple times independently. Each iteration over the DataLoader starts from the beginning and goes through the dataset in a fresh sequence (if shuffle is true, the sequence will be different each time).\n"
