/**
 * Finds the values and indices of the `k` largest entries along the last
 * dimension.
 *
 * If the input is a vector (rank=1), finds the k largest entries in the vector
 * and outputs their values and indices as vectors. Thus values[j] is the j-th
 * largest entry in input, and its index is indices[j].
 * For higher rank inputs, computes the top k entries along the last dimension.
 *
 * If two elements are equal, the lower-index element appears first.

 * const a = tf.tensor2d([[1, 5], [4, 3]]);
 * const {values, indices} = tf.topk(a);
 * values.print();
 * indices.print();
 * ```
 * @param x 1-D or higher `tf.Tensor` with last dimension being at least `k`.
 * @param k Number of top elements to look for along the last dimension.
 * @param sorted If true, the resulting `k` elements will be sorted by the
 *     values in descending order.
