+ **Description of dataset columns:**
493
+ - `id`: A unique row identifier.
494
+ - `description`: A textual description of an individual's features, following a bulleted-list format.
495
+ - `instruction`: The instruction used for zero-shot LLM prompting (should be pre-appended to the row description).
496
+ - `question`: A question relating to the task's target column.
497
+ - `choices`: A list of two answer options relating to the above question.
498
+ - `answer`: The correct answer from the above list of answer options.
499
+ - `answer_key`: The correct answer key; i.e., `A` for the first choice, or `B` for the second choice.
500
+ - `choice_question_prompt`: The full multiple-choice Q&A text string used for LLM prompting.
501
+ - `numeric_question`: A version of the question that prompts for a *numeric output* instead of a *discrete choice output*.
502
+ - `label`: The task's label. This is the correct output to the above numeric question.
503
+ - `numeric_question_prompt`: The full numeric Q&A text string used for LLM prompting.
504
+ - `<tabular-columns>`: All other columns correspond to the tabular features in this task. Each of these features will also appear in text form on the above description column.
505
+
506
+ The dataset was randomly split in `training`, `test`, and `validation` data,
507
+ following an 80%/10%/10% split.
508
+ Only the `test` split should be used to evaluate zero-shot LLM performance.
509
+ The `training` split can be used for fine-tuning, or for fitting traditional
510
+ supervised ML models on the tabular columns for metric baselines.
511
+ The `validation` split should be used for hyperparameter tuning, feature
512
+ engineering or any other model improvement loop.
