You might need to explain a bit more on the Train program topic.

Since you are plotting the graph, why not keep using the event_handler_plot?

print('loss is less than 10.0, stop')
trainer.stop()

not sure if we need to terminate early. Fit a line is pretty small.

train_title = "Train cost"
test_title = "Test cost"

EndStepEvent provide step already. There is no need to create another variable to keep track of it.

Yes.

```python
paddle.init(use_gpu=False, trainer_count=1)

We first define data feeders for test and train. The feeder reads a `BATCH_SIZE` of data each time and feed them to the training/testing process. Users can shuffle a batch out of a `buf_size` in order to make the data random.

Users can shuffle a batch out of a buf_size is a bit confusing...

maybe it should be params_dirname instead of params_folder?

Similar to the trainer.train, the Inferencer needs to take an inference_program to do inferring.

I feel "use the inference_program to setup the train_program" little bit confusing because we did not show inference_program until later

All these sections including training and inference are under ##Dataset section, should we bring these 1 level up?
