## Overview
This dataset is a **Malagasy adaptation of [grade-school-math-instructions](https://huggingface.co/datasets/qwedsacf/grade-school-math-instructions)**. 
It consists of arithmetic word problems converted into instruction-answer pairs in Malagasy. 
Each entry contains a math problem presented as an instruction, optional contextual input, 
and a detailed step-by-step solution in Malagasy.

The dataset is particularly useful for training and evaluating models on **arithmetic reasoning and instruction-following tasks** in Malagasy, a low-resource language.

## Potential Applications
This dataset can be used for:
- Instruct Fine-tuning **language models for arithmetic reasoning** in Malagasy
- Benchmarking **multilingual instruction-following models**

## Usage
To load this dataset using the Hugging Face `datasets` library:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset('Lo-Renz-O/grade-school-math-instructions-Malagasy')
print(dataset['train'][0])
```

## Limitations
- Problems are adapted from English and may not fully reflect Malagasy-specific contexts.
- Focused on arithmetic reasoning; models trained may not generalize to advanced mathematics.
