Dataset Description

• Repository: https://conala-corpus.github.io/
• Paper: Learning to Mine Aligned Code and Natural Language Pairs from Stack Overflow

Dataset Summary

CoNaLa is a benchmark of code and natural language pairs, for the evaluation of code generation tasks. The dataset was crawled from Stack Overflow, automatically filtered, then curated by annotators, split into 2,379 training and 500 test examples. The automatically mined dataset is also available with almost 600k examples.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

This dataset is used to evaluate code generations.

Languages

English - Python code.

Dataset Structure

DatasetDict({
    train: Dataset({
        features: ['question_id', 'intent', 'rewritten_intent', 'snippet'],
        num_rows: 2379
    })
    test: Dataset({
        features: ['question_id', 'intent', 'rewritten_intent', 'snippet'],
        num_rows: 500
    })
})

dataset_mined = load_dataset("neulab/conala", "mined")

Data Instances

CoNaLa - curated

This is the curated dataset by annotators

{
    'question_id': 41067960,
    'intent': 'How to convert a list of multiple integers into a single integer?',
    'rewritten_intent': "Concatenate elements of a list 'x' of multiple integers to a single integer",
    'snippet': 'sum(d * 10 ** i for i, d in enumerate(x[::-1]))'
}

CoNaLa - mined

This is the automatically mined dataset before curation

{
    'question_id': 34705205,
     'parent_answer_post_id': 34705233,
     'prob': 0.8690001442846342,
     'snippet': 'sorted(l, key=lambda x: (-int(x[1]), x[0]))',
     'intent': 'Sort a nested list by two elements',
     'id': '34705205_34705233_0'
}

Data Splits

There are two version of the dataset (curated and mined), mined only has a train split and curated has two splits: train and test.
