+
+    The :class:`Shape` stores the dimensions of a tensor, which can be integers, None (unknown), or
+    symbolic dimensions.
+
+    A shape can be compared to another shape or plain Python list.
+
+    A shape can be frozen (made immutable). When the shape is frozen, it cannot be
+    unfrozen, making it suitable to be shared across tensors or values.
+    Call :method:`freeze` to freeze the shape.
+
+    To update the dimension of a frozen shape, call :method:`copy` to create a
+    new shape with the same dimensions that can be modified.
+
+    Use :method:`get_denotation` and :method:`set_denotation` to access and modify the denotations.
+
+    Example::
+
+        >>> from onnxscript import ir
+        >>> shape = ir.Shape(["B", None, 3])
+        >>> shape.rank()
