reasoning
**Considering function parameters**
I'm thinking about whether I can pass constants as double or float to the extension function `rbf_forward(X1, X2, inv2, var)`. I wonder if Pybind can accept float types? It seems like the wrapper from C++ needs a double, but then the model forward computes with `float(self._neg_half_inv_l2)`. It's a bit confusing, but I need to ensure the data types are consistent when working with these functions.
