Hi, this repo is awesome, but there might be something wrong in the code above. According to the comment above, this snippet intends to change a tensor from shape `[num_layers(=1) * num_directions(=2), batch_size, n_hidden]` to shape `[batch_size, n_hidden * num_directions(=2), 1(=n_layer)]`, i.e. to concatenate the 2 hidden vector from different direction for every data example in a batch(By saying "data example", I mean a batch has `batch_size` examples). But I think the code above will mess up the data examples in a batch and lead to unexpected result.

For example, we can use IPython to check the effect of the snippet above.

```py
# create a tensor with shape [num_layers(=1) * num_directions(=2), batch_size, n_hidden]
In [10]: a=torch.arange(2*3*5).reshape(2,3,5)

In [11]: a
Out[11]:
tensor([[[ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4],
[ 5, 6, 7, 8, 9],
[10, 11, 12, 13, 14]],

[[15, 16, 17, 18, 19],
[20, 21, 22, 23, 24],
[25, 26, 27, 28, 29]]])

In [12]: a.view(-1,10,1)
Out[12]:
tensor([[[ 0],
[ 1],
[ 2],
[ 3],
[ 4],
[ 5],
[ 6],
[ 7],
[ 8],
[ 9]],

```

As you can see, we create a tensor with batch_size=3 and n_hidden=5, e.g `[ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4]` and `[15, 16, 17, 18, 19]` belong to the same data example in the batch, but they are from different directions, so what we want is to concatenate them in the resulting tensor. But what the code really does is to concatenate `[ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4]` and `[ 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]`, which are from **different data examples in a batch**.

I think it can be fixed by changing the line of code to `hidden=torch.cat(final_state[0],final_state[1]],1).view(-1,10,1)`

The effect of the new code can be shown as follows:

```py
In [13]: torch.cat([a[0],a[1]],1).view(-1,10,1)
Out[13]:
tensor([[[ 0],
[ 1],
[ 2],
[ 3],
[ 4],
[15],
[16],
[17],
[18],
[19]],

[[ 5],
[ 6],
[ 7],
[ 8],
[ 9],
[20],
[21],
[22],
[23],
[24]],

[[10],
[11],
[12],
[13],
[14],
[25],
[26],
[27],
[28],
[29]]])

```

Línea de trabajo

Inspect 4-3.Bi-LSTM(Attention)/Bi-LSTM(Attention)-Torch.py at line 50 and compare the reshape with the documented hidden-state shape. Use the tensor example in the issue to verify that each batch example combines its two directional vectors; the issue is done when the resulting tensor preserves those pairings.
