    Configuration for feedforward networks is list by nature. We can write 
    this in simple data structures. In yaml format it can look like:

    .. code-block:: yaml

        architecture:
            - Conv2d:
                args: [3, 16, 25]
                stride: 1
                padding: 2
            - ReLU:
                inplace: true
            - Conv2d:
                args: [16, 25, 5]
                stride: 1
                padding: 2

    Note, that each layer is a list with a single dict, this is for readability.
    For example, `builder` for the first block is called like this:

    .. code-block:: python

        first_layer = builder("Conv2d", *[3, 16, 25], **{"stride": 1, "padding": 2})

    the simpliest ever builder is just the following function:

    .. code-block:: python

         def build_layer(name, *args, **kwargs):
            return layers_dictionary[name](*args, **kwargs)
    
    Some more advanced builders catch exceptions and format them in debuggable way or merge 
    namespaces for name lookup
    
    .. code-block:: python
    
        extended_builder = Builder(torch.nn.__dict__, mynnlib.__dict__)
        net = build_network(architecture, builder=extended_builder)
        
    """
    layers = []
    for block in architecture:
        assert len(block) == 1
        name, kwargs = list(block.items())[0]
        if kwargs is None:
            kwargs = {}
        args = kwargs.pop("args", [])
        layers.append(builder(name, *args, **kwargs))
    return torch.nn.Sequential(*layers)

Hey. Can you please show how to use this code. I have a .yaml file containing the model and and the state dictionary in .pt file
