A question about 'number of steps' in input.json

[kaijiz]

Hi, i am a little confused how to set the number of 'number of steps', is it same as 'number of epoch'? For example, if i have 10000 training data, and i use batch_size=1 which should mean each training data is a batch. So now i have 100000 batches, can i choose 'number of step' to be larger than 10000. If i don't consider the calculation cost, is this value the bigger, the better? Thanks for help.

n_step * batch_size = n_epoch * n_data

If i don't consider the calculation cost, is this value the bigger, the better?

Yes, more is better.
