'''
A Bidirectional Recurrent Neural Network (LSTM) implementation example using TensorFlow library.
This example is using the MNIST database of handwritten digits (http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/)

'''
To classify images using a bidirectional recurrent neural network, we consider
every image row as a sequence of pixels. Because MNIST image shape is 28*28px,
we will then handle 28 sequences of 28 steps for every sample.
