```python
tensorplay.functional.numel(input: Tensor) → int
```

Returns the total number of elements in the input tensor.

Parameters:

input ([Tensor](/docs/generated/tensorplay.Tensor.html#tensorplay.Tensor)) – the input tensor.

Example:

```
>>> a = tensorplay.randn(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
>>> tensorplay.numel(a)
120
>>> a = tensorplay.zeros(4,4)
>>> tensorplay.numel(a)
16
```
