"""Standard functions for creating slots.

A slot is a `Variable` created with the same shape as a primary variable or
`Tensor`. A slot is always scoped in the namespace of the primary object and
typically has the same device and type.

Slots are typically used as accumulators to track values associated with
the primary object:

```python
# Optimizers can create a slot for each variable to track accumulators
accumulators = {var : create_zeros_slot(var, "momentum") for var in vs}
for var in vs:
  apply_momentum(var, accumulators[var], lr, grad, momentum_tensor)

# Slots can also be used for moving averages
mavg = create_slot(var, var.initialized_value(), "exponential_moving_avg")
update_mavg = mavg.assign_sub((mavg - var) * (1 - decay))
```
