+## Write a Custom Operator
 
 There are three steps to write an operator:
 
-1. Define a `torch.autograd.Function` (or `Function` for short) class, wrap the computation of the operator into this `Function`, and also define a symbolic method so that the operator can be parsed in auto_LiRPA via ONNX. Please refer to [PyTorch documentation](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/onnx.html?highlight=symbolic#static-symbolic-method) on defining a `Function` with a symbolic method. Call this `Function` via `.apply()` when using this operator in the model.

-3. Create a mapping from the operator name (defined in step 1) to the bound class (defined in step 2). Define a `dict` which each item is a mapping. Pass the `dict` to the `custom_ops` argument when calling `BoundedModule` (see the [documentation](api.html#auto_LiRPA.BoundedModule)). For example, if the operator name is `MyRelu`, and the bound class is `BoundMyRelu`, then add `"MyRelu": BoundMyRelu` to the `dict`.

+`.apply()` of `Function`.

+4. [Register the custom operator](api.html#auto_LiRPA.bound_op_map.register_custom_op).
