How to manually change learning rate?

[drscotthawley]

Hi, I see descriptions of learning rate schedulers, etc. What I want to do is to just manually set the learning rate during a run, something "optim.something.something.lr = x".

Would that be just by going down to "raw PyTorch", e.g. like

optimizer.param_groups[0]['lr'] = new_value

...? Thanks!
