 We imported necessary classes as :class:`~ignite.metrics.Metric`, :class:`~ignite.exceptions.NotComputableError` and
 decorators to adapt the metric for distributed setting. In ``reset`` method, we reset internal variables ``_num_correct``
 and ``_num_examples`` which are used to compute the custom metric. In ``updated`` method we define how to update
 the internal variables. And finally in ``compute`` method, we compute metric value.
 
+Notice that ``_num_correct`` is a tensor, since in ``update`` we accumulate tensor values. ``_num_examples`` is a python
+scalar since we accumulate normal integers. For differentiable metrics, you must detach the accumulated values before
+adding them to the internal variables.
+
 We can check this implementation in a simple case:
