Regression example using tf eager

PennyLane Help

Hi @josh and @nathan,

Could you provide an example of regression using tf eager? Like the examples here: https://pennylane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/code/interfaces/tfe.html

Thanks!

Hi @cubicgate. You can have a look at some of the TensorFlow examples here: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tree/master/tensorflow/contrib/eager/python/examples/linear_regression

Thanks @josh for this example. I have a simple program, but it did not work. Could you take a look at it? Thanks!
