CodeContests is a competitive programming dataset for machine-learning. This dataset was used when training AlphaCode.
It consists of programming problems, from a variety of sources:
| Site | URL | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Aizu | https://judge.u-aizu.ac.jp | CodeNet |
| AtCoder | https://atcoder.jp | CodeNet |
| CodeChef | https://www.codechef.com | description2code |
| Codeforces | https://codeforces.com | description2code and Codeforces |
| HackerEarth | https://www.hackerearth.com | description2code |
Problems include test cases in the form of paired inputs and outputs, as well as both correct and incorrect human solutions in a variety of languages.
Install the Cloud SDK, which
provides the gsutil utility. You can then download the full data (~3GiB) with,
e.g:
gsutil -m cp -r gs://dm-code_contests /tmp
The data consists of ContestProblem protocol buffers in
Riegeli format. See contest_problem.proto
for the protocol buffer definition and documentation of its fields.
The dataset contains three splits:
| Split | Filename |
|---|---|
| Training | code_contests_train.riegeli-*-of-00128 |
| Validation | code_contests_valid.riegeli |
| Test | code_contests_test.riegeli |
There is example code for iterating over the dataset in C++ (in
print_names.cc) and Python (in print_names_and_sources.py). For example, you
can print the source and name of each problem in the validation data by
installing bazel and then
running:
bazel run -c opt \
:print_names_and_sources /tmp/dm-code_contests/code_contests_valid.riegeli
Or do the same for the training data with the following command (which will print around 13000 lines of output):
bazel run -c opt \
:print_names_and_sources /tmp/dm-code_contests/code_contests_train.riegeli*
We plan to update this repository with code for executing and evaluating potential solutions.
