The rank of a [[tensor]], also known as its ''order'', refers to the number of dimensions or indices required to describe the tensor. Formally, the tensor rank is defined as the number of axes within a tensor. In other words, the tensor rank determines the complexity of the data structure, providing insights into the nature of the underlying data.

A scalar, also known as a rank-0 tensor, is a single numerical value with no dimensions. Scalars are typically used to represent simple quantities such as a learning rate or a loss value in machine learning algorithms.
