Took me 2 hours to find out why the final output of a neural network was a bunch of NaN. This is always very annoying but I can’t really complain, it make sense. Just sucks.
That could be a nice way. Sadly it was in a C++ code base (using tensorflow). Therefore no such nice things (would be slow too). I skill-issued myself thinking a struct would be 0 -initialized but MyStruct input; would not while MyStruct input {}; will (that was the fix). Long story.

I guess you can always just add an

Oof. C++ really is a harsh mistress.
If (var.nan){var = 0} my beloved.
It also depends on the context
I hope it was garlic NaN at least.
