The sample code for Chapter 3 the original transformer runs, but does not produce translated output in French. I've run the code locally and on Google Colab and the results are the same, i.e. no errors, but no translated output either.

In addition to this string, I copied exact text from the training data, and even that was not translated:

Source text: Extraordinary Treatment of Injured Canadian Soldiers
