Description

Is it possible to add one example of using gradient to do regression (for example, on sine curves) at the end of these gradient examples in https://www.tensorflow.org/quantum/tutorials/gradients? I would like to learn how to use the gradient after getting the gradient.

Thanks!

Research direction
Study the existing gradient example at the provided URL, understand the gradient computation, then create a simple sine curve dataset and implement a linear regression using the computed gradients. Add the code and explanation to the end of the gradients tutorial.
