🔧 Usage Examples
Quick Start
from crayon import CrayonVocab
vocab = CrayonVocab(device="auto")
vocab.load_profile("lite")
text = "Hello, world!"
tokens = vocab.tokenize(text)
print(tokens)
Batch Processing
from crayon import CrayonVocab
vocab = CrayonVocab(device="cpu")
vocab.load_profile("code")
documents = ["def hello():", "class MyClass:", "import numpy"]
batch_tokens = vocab.tokenize(documents)
for doc, tokens in zip(documents, batch_tokens):
print(f"{doc} -> {tokens}")
GPU Acceleration (if available)
from crayon import CrayonVocab, check_backends
backends = check_backends()
print(f"Available backends: {backends}")
if backends['cuda']:
vocab = CrayonVocab(device="cuda")
vocab.load_profile("science")
tokens = vocab.tokenize("E = mc²")
print(tokens)
