public class SequentialBlock
extends LayerBlock

A block of sequential layers. Layers will be added to it in the order they are passed in the constructor. The forward() method of SequentialBlock accepts any input and forwards it to the first layer it contains. It then "chains" outputs to inputs sequentially for each subsequent module, finally returning the output of the last layer.
