Should have at least one learning rate.

Error message

Should have at least one learning rate.

What it means

Panics in ModuleLearningRate::base when the groups list is empty. base() reads groups.first() to return the learning rate of the catch-all group that matches every parameter, so an optimizer or learning-rate group set constructed without any entries violates the type's invariant that at least one (typically default) group exists. Construct ModuleLearningRate with one or more groups to avoid it.

Solutions

1. Construct ModuleLearningRate with at least one learning-rate group
2. Check for logic that clears or skips populating `groups`
3. Use `ModuleLearningRate::from(lr)` to create a single catch-all group
