        The Pytorch module to which we are attaching the privacy engine
    @param batch_size
        Training batch size. Used in the privacy accountant.

        If on, it will use ``torchcsprng`` for secure random number generation. Comes with
        a significant performance cost, therefore it's recommended that you turn it off when
        just experimenting.

        The order of the norm. For instance, 2 represents L-2 norm, while
