Describe the bug
When using len(train_dataloader.dataset) to get the dataset size in the Google Colab notebook from Quickstart PyTorch, I encountered the following error:
TypeError: 'FashionMNIST' object is not callable
I think we can use another way to take the size we need:
train_dataloader.dataset.data.shape[0]
```
### Describe your environment
Google Colab
Torch version: 2.5.1+cu121

Research direction
Start with the Quickstart PyTorch tutorial and its linked Google Colab notebook, then locate the use of len(train_dataloader.dataset) that produces the FashionMNIST TypeError. Verify the corrected dataset-size expression in Colab and confirm the tutorial runs without that error.
