| ### Dataset Summary |
|
|
| This dataset contains several subsets for training multilingual tokenizers. Every subset possesses a collection of curated text samples in different languages. |
|
|
| ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards |
|
|
| This dataset can be used for the task of text generation, specifically for training and evaluating tokenizers in multiple languages. |
|
|
| ### Languages |
|
|
| Hindi, Bengali, English, Portuguese, and Code (a mixture of 36 programming languages). |
|

| ## Dataset Structure |
|
|
| ### Data Instances |
|
|
| The dataset consists of the following features: |
|
|
| - **text:** a string of text in the respective language of the subset. |
|
|
| ### Data Fields |
|
|
| ```json |
| { |
| "text": "Olá, como vai você?" |
| } |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Subsets and Splits |
|
|
| The dataset includes the following subsets: |
|
|
| - **Portuguese:** This subset contains 2,000,000 text samples in Portuguese. |
| - **Hindi:** This subset contains 2,000,000 text samples in Hindi. |
| - **Bengali:** This subset contains 2,000,000 text samples in Bengali |
| - **English:** This subset contains 2,000,000 text samples in English. |
| - **Code:** This subset contains 975,000 text samples in various programming languages. |
|
|
| The `txt` files (e.g., [`hindi_test.txt`](hindi_test.txt)) are for testing/evaluation purposes. |
|
|
| ### Dataset Creation |
