Return a tensor with the same shape and contents as input.

# Aliases:

• tf.compat.v1.identity
• tf.compat.v2.identity

 tf.identity(
    input,
    name=None
)

# Used in the guide:

• Eager execution

# For example:

 import tensorflow as tf
val0 = tf.ones((1,), dtype=tf.float32)
a = tf.atan2(val0, val0)
a_identity = tf.identity(a)
print(a.numpy())          #[0.7853982]
print(a_identity.numpy()) #[0.7853982]

# Args:

• input: A Tensor.
• name: A name for the operation (optional).

# Returns:

A Tensor. Has the same type as input.
