## 📚 Usage Examples

### 🆕 **New Modular API (Recommended)**

```python
import torch
from minimamba import MambaForCausalLM, MambaLMConfig, InferenceParams

# 1. Create configuration
config = MambaLMConfig(
    d_model=512,
    n_layer=6,
    vocab_size=10000,
    d_state=16,
    d_conv=4,
    expand=2,
)

# 2. Initialize specialized model
model = MambaForCausalLM(config)

# 3. Basic forward pass
input_ids = torch.randint(0, config.vocab_size, (2, 128))
logits = model(input_ids)
print(logits.shape)  # torch.Size([2, 128, 10000])

# 4. Advanced generation with caching
generated = model.generate(
    input_ids[:1, :10],
    max_new_tokens=50,
    temperature=0.8,
    top_p=0.9,
    use_cache=True
)
print(f"Generated: {generated.shape}")  # torch.Size([1, 60])
```

### 🔄 **Efficient Inference with Smart Caching**

```python
from minimamba import InferenceParams

# Initialize cache
inference_params = InferenceParams()

# First forward pass (builds cache)
logits = model(input_ids, inference_params)

# Subsequent passes use cache (much faster)
next_token = torch.randint(0, config.vocab_size, (1, 1))
logits = model(next_token, inference_params)

# Monitor cache usage
cache_info = model.get_cache_info(inference_params)
print(f"Cache memory: {cache_info['memory_mb']:.2f} MB")

# Reset when needed
model.reset_cache(inference_params)
```

### 🎯 **Task-Specific Models**

```python
# Sequence Classification
from minimamba import MambaForSequenceClassification, MambaClassificationConfig

class_config = MambaClassificationConfig(
    d_model=256,
    n_layer=4,
    num_labels=3,
    pooling_strategy="last"
)
classifier = MambaForSequenceClassification(class_config)

# Feature Extraction
from minimamba import MambaForFeatureExtraction, BaseMambaConfig

feature_config = BaseMambaConfig(d_model=256, n_layer=4)
feature_extractor = MambaForFeatureExtraction(feature_config)
```

### 🔙 **Legacy API (Still Supported)**

```python
# Your existing code works unchanged!
from minimamba import Mamba, MambaConfig

config = MambaConfig(d_model=512, n_layer=6, vocab_size=10000)
model = Mamba(config)  # Now uses optimized v1.0 architecture
logits = model(input_ids)
```

# Before: Pseudo-parallel (actually sequential)
for block_idx in range(num_blocks):  # Sequential!
    block_states = self._block_scan(...)

# After: True parallel computation
log_A = torch.log(A.clamp(min=1e-20))
cumsum_log_A = torch.cumsum(log_A, dim=1)  # Parallel ⚡
prefix_A = torch.exp(cumsum_log_A)  # Parallel ⚡
```
