class OneHotCategorical(Distribution):
    r"""
    Creates a one-hot categorical distribution parameterized by :attr:`probs` or
    :attr:`logits`.

    Samples are one-hot coded vectors of size ``probs.size(-1)``.

    .. note:: The `probs` argument must be non-negative, finite and have a non-zero sum,
              and it will be normalized to sum to 1 along the last dimension. :attr:`probs`
              will return this normalized value.
              The `logits` argument will be interpreted as unnormalized log probabilities
              and can therefore be any real number. It will likewise be normalized so that
              the resulting probabilities sum to 1 along the last dimension. :attr:`logits`
              will return this normalized value.

    See also: :func:`torch.distributions.Categorical` for specifications of
    :attr:`probs` and :attr:`logits`.

    Example::

        >>> # xdoctest: +IGNORE_WANT("non-deterinistic")
        >>> m = OneHotCategorical(torch.tensor([ 0.25, 0.25, 0.25, 0.25 ]))
        >>> m.sample()  # equal probability of 0, 1, 2, 3
        tensor([ 0.,  0.,  0.,  1.])

    Args:
        probs (Tensor): event probabilities
        logits (Tensor): event log probabilities (unnormalized)
