        To feed variable size inputs, users can feed variable size inputs
        directly to this :code:`paddle.fluid.layers.data` and PaddlePaddle will
        fit the size accordingly. Or set -1 on the variable dimension when using
        :code:`paddle.fluid.data` .

        The default :code:`stop_gradient` attribute of the Variable created by
        this API is true, which means the gradient won't be passed backward
        through the data Varaible. Set :code:`var.stop_gradient = False` If
        user would like to pass backward gradient.

            For example if shape=[1], the resulting shape is [-1, 1]. This will 
            be useful to set different batch size at run time.
          2. If shape contains -1, such as shape=[1, -1].
            append_batch_size will be enforced to be be False (ineffective)
            because PaddlePaddle cannot set more than 1 unknown number on the
            shape.

    source and feed the data from the data source to the Reader Variable. 
    When :code:`Executor::Run()` is invoked in C++ side, the data from the 
    generator would be read automatically. Unlike :code:`DataFeeder.feed()`,
    the data reading process and :code:`Executor::Run()` process can run in 
    parallel using :code:`py_reader`. The :code:`start()` method of the Reader
    should be called when each pass begins, while the :code:`reset()` method 
    should be called when the pass ends and :code:`fluid.core.EOFException` raises.

    Note:
       :code:`Program.clone()` method cannot clone :code:`py_reader`. You can 
       refer to :ref:`api_fluid_Program` for more details.
       
       The :code:`read_file` call needs to be in the program block of :code:`py_reader`.

    The OP creates a Python reader for data feeding in Python, it is similar
    to :ref:`api_fluid_layers_py_reader` except that it can read data from
    the list of feed variables.

    Parameters:
        capacity (int): The buffer capacity maintained by :code:`py_reader`. Its unit
            is batch number. Set larger :attr:`capacity` if the reader is fast.
        feed_list (list(Variable)): The feed variables, are usually created by
            :code:`fluid.data()`.
        name (str, optional): Normally there is no need for user to set this property.
            For more information, please refer to :ref:`api_guide_Name`. Default: None.
        use_double_buffer (bool, optional): Whether use double buffer. If it's True,
