## 🚀 Quick Start

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

# Load model and tokenizer
model_name = "PinkPixel/Crystal-Think-V2"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto"
)

# Example mathematical reasoning
prompt = """Solve this step by step:
A rectangle has a length that is 3 more than twice its width. If the perimeter is 42 cm, what are the dimensions?"""

inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model.generate(
        **inputs,
        max_new_tokens=512,
        temperature=0.7,
        do_sample=True,
        pad_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id
    )

response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
```

## 🎯 New Reasoning Format

Crystal Think V2 introduces an enhanced reasoning format for clearer problem-solving:

### **Input Format:**

```
<think>
[Your step-by-step reasoning process]
- Variable definitions
- Equation setup
- Mathematical operations  
- Verification steps
</think>

<SOLUTION>
[Final organized answer]
1) Specific results
2) Numerical values
3) Units and context
</SOLUTION>
```

### **Example Output:**

```
<think>
Let me define variables for this problem.
Let w = width of the rectangle
Then length = 2w + 3 (3 more than twice the width)

Perimeter formula: P = 2(length + width)
42 = 2((2w + 3) + w)
42 = 2(3w + 3)
42 = 6w + 6
36 = 6w
w = 6

So width = 6 cm, length = 2(6) + 3 = 15 cm
Check: P = 2(15 + 6) = 2(21) = 42 ✓
</think>

<SOLUTION>
The rectangle dimensions are:
- Width: 6 cm
- Length: 15 cm
</SOLUTION>
```
