roywei opened a new pull request #11978: [MXNET-771] Fix Flaky Test 
test_executor.py:test_dot
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/11978
 
 
   ## Description ##
   Fix #11686, removed fixed seed in test_executor.py:test_dot
   
   1. Verified this test is flaky and the values for comparison are slightly off
   2. Flakiness comes from sym.dot of tow large tensor. The input tensor size 
was original set to be a random size in range of (1,500). Reduced 500 to 200 to 
make it more stable.
   3.  The test still fails with 1e-6 tolerance, increased it to 1e-5 
(reasonable for fp32)
   4. removed helper function `reldiff` (calculating relative difference) with 
`assert_almost_equal` in `mxnet.test_utils` which can handle corner case better 
(when `norm` in `reldiff`  is 0)
   5. removed fixed seed

   - For new C++ functions in header files, their functionalities and arguments 
are documented. 
   - For new examples, README.md is added to explain the what the example does, 
the source of the dataset, expected performance on test set and reference to 
the original paper if applicable
