"""
This script demonstrates the implementation of the ReLU function.
It's a kind of activation function defined as the positive part of its argument in the context of neural network.
The function takes a vector of K real numbers as input and then argmax(x, 0).
After through ReLU, the element of the vector always 0 or real number.
Script inspired from its corresponding Wikipedia article
