Writing the evaluation loop
In this exercise, you will write an evaluation loop to compute validation loss. The evaluation loop follows a similar structure to the training loop but without gradient calculations or weight updates.
model, validationloader, and loss function criterion have already been defined to handle predictions, data loading, and loss calculation.
