# Code Contests C++ Dataset

This dataset contains C++ programming solutions extracted from the [DeepMind Code Contests](https://huggingface.co/datasets/deepmind/code_contests) dataset.

## Source

This dataset is derived from the [DeepMind Code Contests](https://huggingface.co/datasets/deepmind/code_contests) dataset, which contains programming problems and solutions from various coding competition platforms.

## Dataset Description

- **Format**: CSV file with a single 'text' column containing C++ programs
- **Splits**: train, test, valid (preserved from original dataset)
- **Source Languages**: Only C++ (language ID 2 from the original dataset)
- **Preprocessing**:
  - Filtered to include only C++ solutions
  - Extracted program text only
  - Preserved original dataset splits

## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("hytopot/code_contests_cpp")

# Access different splits
train_data = dataset["train"]
test_data = dataset["test"]
valid_data = dataset["valid"]

# Example: Print first program in training set
print("First training program:")
print(train_data[0]["text"][:200] + "...")
```
