# linear(weight:)

Adds a linear transformation operation to the current graph.

```
func linear(weight: some BNNSGraph.Builder.OperationParameter<T>) -> BNNSGraph.Builder.Tensor<T>
```

## Parameters

`weight`

The weight.

## Discussion

This function treats `self` as `x` and `weight` as `A` in `y = xA^T`.
