# MATH with Solution Variants

## Dataset Summary
This dataset is a processed version of [EleutherAI/hendrycks_math](https://huggingface.co/datasets/EleutherAI/hendrycks_math), which is derived from the original [MATH dataset](https://github.com/hendrycks/math) by Hendrycks et al.

The key addition in this version is the **`solution_variants`** column. This column contains semantically equivalent variations of the ground truth answer (e.g., "0.5" vs "1/2"), generated to serve as a robust reward signal for Reinforcement Learning (RL) training.

## Dataset Structure

Each example contains:
- **`problem`**: The original mathematics problem statement.
- **`solution`**: The original step-by-step solution.
- **`solution_variants`** (New): A list of valid, equivalent short answers extracted and verified with math_verify.

### Sample
```json
{
  "problem": "What is 1/4 + 1/4?",
  "solution": "... \\boxed{1/2}",
  "solution_variants": ["1/2", "0.5"]
}
```
