    """MetricCollection class can be used to chain metrics that have the same call pattern into one single class.

    Args:
        metrics: One of the following

            * list or tuple (sequence): if metrics are passed in as a list or tuple, will use the metrics class name
              as key for output dict. Therefore, two metrics of the same class cannot be chained this way.

            * arguments: similar to passing in as a list, metrics passed in as arguments will use their metric
              class name as key for the output dict.

            * dict: if metrics are passed in as a dict, will use each key in the dict as key for output dict.
              Use this format if you want to chain together multiple of the same metric with different parameters.
              Note that the keys in the output dict will be sorted alphabetically.

        prefix: a string to append in front of the keys of the output dict

        postfix: a string to append after the keys of the output dict

        compute_groups:
            By default the MetricCollection will try to reduce the computations needed for the metrics in the collection
            by checking if they belong to the same **compute group**. All metrics in a compute group share the same
            metric state and are therefore only different in their compute step e.g. accuracy, precision and recall
            can all be computed from the true positives/negatives and false positives/negatives. By default,
            this argument is ``True`` which enables this feature. Set this argument to `False` for disabling
            this behaviour. Can also be set to a list of lists of metrics for setting the compute groups yourself.

    .. tip::
        The compute groups feature can significantly speedup the calculation of metrics under the right conditions.
        First, the feature is only available when calling the ``update`` method and not when calling ``forward`` method
        due to the internal logic of ``forward`` preventing this. Secondly, since we compute groups share metric
        states by reference, calling ``.items()``, ``.values()`` etc. on the metric collection will break this
        reference and a copy of states are instead returned in this case (reference will be reestablished on the next
        call to ``update``). Do note that for the time being that if you are manually specifying compute groups in
        nested collections, these are not compatible with the compute groups of the parent collection and will be
        overridden.

    .. important::
        Metric collections can be nested at initialization (see last example) but the output of the collection will
        still be a single flatten dictionary combining the prefix and postfix arguments from the nested collection.

    Raises:
        ValueError:
            If one of the elements of ``metrics`` is not an instance of ``pl.metrics.Metric``.
        ValueError:
            If two elements in ``metrics`` have the same ``name``.
        ValueError:
            If ``metrics`` is not a ``list``, ``tuple`` or a ``dict``.
        ValueError:
            If ``metrics`` is ``dict`` and additional_metrics are passed in.
        ValueError:
            If ``prefix`` is set and it is not a string.
        ValueError:
            If ``postfix`` is set and it is not a string.

    Example::
        In the most basic case, the metrics can be passed in as a list or tuple. The keys of the output dict will be
        the same as the class name of the metric:

        >>> from torch import tensor
        >>> from pprint import pprint
        >>> from torchmetrics import MetricCollection
        >>> from torchmetrics.regression import MeanSquaredError
        >>> from torchmetrics.classification import MulticlassAccuracy, MulticlassPrecision, MulticlassRecall
        >>> target = tensor([0, 2, 0, 2, 0, 1, 0, 2])
        >>> preds = tensor([2, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2, 2, 2])
        >>> metrics = MetricCollection([MulticlassAccuracy(num_classes=3, average='micro'),
        ...                             MulticlassPrecision(num_classes=3, average='macro'),
        ...                             MulticlassRecall(num_classes=3, average='macro')])
        >>> metrics(preds, target)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
        {'MulticlassAccuracy': tensor(0.1250),
         'MulticlassPrecision': tensor(0.0667),
         'MulticlassRecall': tensor(0.1111)}

    Example::
        Alternatively, metrics can be passed in as arguments. The keys of the output dict will be the same as the
        class name of the metric:

        >>> metrics = MetricCollection(MulticlassAccuracy(num_classes=3, average='micro'),
        ...                            MulticlassPrecision(num_classes=3, average='macro'),
        ...                            MulticlassRecall(num_classes=3, average='macro'))
        >>> metrics(preds, target)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
        {'MulticlassAccuracy': tensor(0.1250),
         'MulticlassPrecision': tensor(0.0667),
         'MulticlassRecall': tensor(0.1111)}

    Example::
        If multiple of the same metric class (with different parameters) should be chained together, metrics can be
        passed in as a dict and the output dict will have the same keys as the input dict:

        >>> metrics = MetricCollection({'micro_recall': MulticlassRecall(num_classes=3, average='micro'),
        ...                             'macro_recall': MulticlassRecall(num_classes=3, average='macro')})
        >>> same_metric = metrics.clone()
        >>> pprint(metrics(preds, target))
        {'macro_recall': tensor(0.1111), 'micro_recall': tensor(0.1250)}
        >>> pprint(same_metric(preds, target))
        {'macro_recall': tensor(0.1111), 'micro_recall': tensor(0.1250)}

    Example::
        Metric collections can also be nested up to a single time. The output of the collection will still be a single
        dict with the prefix and postfix arguments from the nested collection:

        >>> metrics = MetricCollection([
        ...     MetricCollection([
        ...         MulticlassAccuracy(num_classes=3, average='macro'),
        ...         MulticlassPrecision(num_classes=3, average='macro')
        ...     ], postfix='_macro'),
        ...     MetricCollection([
        ...         MulticlassAccuracy(num_classes=3, average='micro'),
        ...         MulticlassPrecision(num_classes=3, average='micro')
        ...     ], postfix='_micro'),
        ... ], prefix='valmetrics/')
        >>> pprint(metrics(preds, target))  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
        {'valmetrics/MulticlassAccuracy_macro': tensor(0.1111),
         'valmetrics/MulticlassAccuracy_micro': tensor(0.1250),
         'valmetrics/MulticlassPrecision_macro': tensor(0.0667),
         'valmetrics/MulticlassPrecision_micro': tensor(0.1250)}

    Example::
        The `compute_groups` argument allow you to specify which metrics should share metric state. By default, this
        will automatically be derived but can also be set manually.

        >>> metrics = MetricCollection(
        ...     MulticlassRecall(num_classes=3, average='macro'),
        ...     MulticlassPrecision(num_classes=3, average='macro'),
        ...     MeanSquaredError(),
        ...     compute_groups=[['MulticlassRecall', 'MulticlassPrecision'], ['MeanSquaredError']]
        ... )
        >>> metrics.update(preds, target)
        >>> pprint(metrics.compute())
        {'MeanSquaredError': tensor(2.3750), 'MulticlassPrecision': tensor(0.0667), 'MulticlassRecall': tensor(0.1111)}
        >>> pprint(metrics.compute_groups)
        {0: ['MulticlassRecall', 'MulticlassPrecision'], 1: ['MeanSquaredError']}
