    step
)

Return true if the timer should trigger for the specified step.

Args
step Training step to trigger on.

Returns
True if the difference between the current time and the time of the last trigger exceeds every_secs, or if the difference between the current step and the last triggered step exceeds every_steps. False otherwise.

update_last_triggered_step

View source

update_last_triggered_step(
    step
)

Update the last triggered time and step number.

Args
step The current step.

Returns
A pair (elapsed_time, elapsed_steps), where elapsed_time is the number of seconds between the current trigger and the last one (a float), and elapsed_steps is the number of steps between the current trigger and the last one. Both values will be set to None on the first trigger.
