""" Example code of how to use a learning rate scheduler simple, in this case with a (very) small and simple Feedforward Network training on MNIST dataset with a learning rate scheduler. In this case ReduceLROnPlateau scheduler is used, but can easily be changed to any of the other schedulers available.
