StarCoder GPTeacher-Codegen Fine-Tuned

This model is bigcode/starcoder fine-tuned on the teknium1/GPTeacher codegen dataset (GPT-4 code instruction fine-tuning).

Model Details

The base StarCoder models are 15.5B parameter models trained on 80+ programming languages from The Stack (v1.2), with opt-out requests excluded. The model uses Multi Query Attention, a context window of 8192 tokens, and was trained using the Fill-in-the-Middle objective on 1 trillion tokens.

Uses

Intended use

The base model was trained on GitHub code and then fine-tuned to follow instructions. Prompts such as "Write a function that computes the square root." should work reasonably well. The original repo recommeds using the Tech Assistant prompt to few-shot prompt it into behaving as a technical assistant. This fine-tuned model uses the Alpaca prompts.

Example Outputs

Full Prompt:

Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an input that provides further context. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
What does this program do and how does it work?
### Input:
send(to, from, count)
register short *to, *from;
register count;
{
    register n = (count + 7) / 8;
    switch (count % 8) {
        case 0: *to = *from++;
        case 7: *to = *from++;
        case 6: *to = *from++;
        case 5: *to = *from++;
        case 4: *to = *from++;
        case 3: *to = *from++;
        case 2: *to = *from++;
        case 1: *to = *from++;
    }
    while (--n > 0) {
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
        *to = *from++;
    }
}
### Response:

Response:

This program is designed to efficiently copy bytes from one memory location to another. It copies 'count' bytes from the location pointed to by 'from' to the location pointed to by 'to', and works correctly regardless of address alignment. The function 'foo' is a wrapper function that initializes the 'to' and 'from' pointers, checks for proper memory bounds, and performs byte alignment if necessary.

To use this program, you must declare two pointer variables, 'to' and 'from', and then call the 'foo' function with the following parameters:

foo(to, from, count)

Attribution & Other Requirements

The pretraining dataset of the model was filtered for permissive licenses only. Nevertheless, the model can generate source code verbatim from the dataset. The code's license might require attribution and/or other specific requirements that must be respected. The BigCode project provides a search index that let's you search through the pretraining data to identify where generated code came from and apply the proper attribution to your code.

Limitations

The model has been trained on source code from 80+ programming languages. The predominant language in source is English although other languages are also present. As such the model is capable of generating code snippets provided some context but the generated code is not guaranteed to work as intended. It can be inefficient, contain bugs or exploits. See the original paper for an in-depth discussion of the model limitations. The fine-tuning process makes the model more responsive to direct user input, however this is an early attempt at instruction fine-tuning starcoder models and the results may not be representative of the model's full potential.
