Dataset Card for "tiny_shakespeare"

Dataset Summary

40,000 lines of Shakespeare from a variety of Shakespeare's plays. Featured in Andrej Karpathy's blog post 'The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent Neural Networks': http://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/.

To use for e.g. character modelling:

d = datasets.load_dataset(name='tiny_shakespeare')['train']
d = d.map(lambda x: datasets.Value('strings').unicode_split(x['text'], 'UTF-8'))
# train split includes vocabulary for other splits
vocabulary = sorted(set(next(iter(d)).numpy()))
d = d.map(lambda x: {'cur_char': x[:-1], 'next_char': x[1:]})
d = d.unbatch()
seq_len = 100
batch_size = 2
d = d.batch(seq_len)
d = d.batch(batch_size)
