poetry project reports 2.0 as learning rate

[radiodee1]

I am following the code found here:

https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/gcp/cloud-poetry-training-and-hyperparameter-tuning-custom-text-models-on-cloud-ml-engine

The code can be found on github in a notebook here:

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/training-data-analyst/blob/master/courses/machine_learning/deepdive/09_sequence/poetry.ipynb

I have copied the code fairly closely, but have changed the names of some things. When I run my code there is a message that the learning rate has been set to 2.00 . Is this right? Should it not be something like 0.05?

below is some code from my 'problem.py' code.

@registry.register_hparams
def transformer_chat():
    hparams = transformer.transformer_base()
    hparams.num_hidden_layers = 2
    hparams.hidden_size = 128
    hparams.filter_size = 512
    hparams.num_heads = 4
    hparams.attention_dropout = 0.6
    hparams.layer_prepostprocess_dropout = 0.6
    hparams.learning_rate = 0.05
    return hparams

# hyperparameter tuning ranges
@registry.register_ranged_hparams
def transformer_chat_range(rhp):
    rhp.set_float("learning_rate", 0.05, 0.25, scale=rhp.LOG_SCALE)
    rhp.set_int("num_hidden_layers", 2, 4)
    rhp.set_discrete("hidden_size", [128, 256, 512])
    rhp.set_float("attention_dropout", 0.4, 0.7)

This is a snippet of the output that shows the learning rate being reported as 2.0:

I suspect I'm doing something wrong. Can you point it out? Thanks for your time.
