[Bug]: Undefined Variable global_model in Code Example
Author: ronodhirSoumikCreated Sep 18, 2026Updated Sep 18, 2026
Describe the bug
In a code snippet in Upgrade to Message API,
# Defined model to federate and extract parameters
model = MyModel()
arrays = ArrayRecord(global_model.state_dict())The variable is defined as model on first line, but in second line it references global_model, which is never defined anywhere in the code example. A user copying this example would get a undefined var global_model error.
Love to add the fix for this.
Steps/Code to Reproduce
