Neural networks famously have many circles.

Many Circles, many Arrows! Wowie!
Too bad! This Surfeit of circles is a red herring, a bamboozlement! For anyone using a pre-built Machine Learning Library, this nice colorful circle diagram gets thrown out of the window in favour of "Layers".
I named my Struct "NeuralNet". Much like a NeuralNet in Tensorflow, there are no circles nor any arrows pointing from circles to other circles. At the coding level, it's very similar.
Splitting at hairs, though, there is a minor difference.

Whenever I used Tensorflow, I got diddly Squat. 15 minutes for absolutely nothing useful whatsoever. That's even if my Tensorflow structure compiled, which It often didn't.
I wanted my implementation to fail early and fail fast. To do this, I cross-check the current output dimensions with any potential new layer. A by-product of this is that each Layer is one massive Matrix instead of a swarm of little matrixies. I'm finding the task of drawing a diagram with many bubbles and many arrows to indeed be quite difficult!
Again, this slipped by because no-body uses all the little circles unless they want to impress someone with a neat pictograph.
