# Project Euler Problems Dataset |
|
|
|
A comprehensive collection of mathematical and programming challenges from Project Euler (projecteuler.net), organized for machine learning and educational purposes. |
|
|
|
## Dataset Description |
|
|
|
This dataset contains 918 problems from Project Euler, a series of challenging mathematical/computer programming problems that require creative problem-solving approaches. |
|
|
|
### Features |
|
|
|
- **id**: Problem number (integer) |
|
- **title**: Problem title |
|
- **problem**: Plain text version of the problem statement |
|
- **question_latex**: LaTeX formatted problem statement |
|
- **question_html**: HTML formatted problem statement |
|
- **numerical_answer**: The correct numerical answer |
|
- **pub_date**: Publication date |
|
- **solved_by**: Number of people who have solved the problem |
|
- **diff_rate**: Difficulty rating (percentage of users who solved it) |
|
|
|
## Splits |
|
|
|
The dataset provides several splits for different use cases: |
|
|
|
- **train/test**: Standard 80/10/10 split for machine learning |
|
- train: 734 problems |
|
- test: 184 problems |
|
- **easy/medium/hard**: Problems grouped by difficulty level |
|
- easy: 277 problems (>25% solve rate) |
|
- medium: 336 problems (5-25% solve rate) |
|
- hard: 305 problems (≤5% solve rate) |
|
- **early_problems/later_problems**: First half vs. second half of problems by ID |
|
- early_problems: 464 problems |
|
- later_problems: 454 problems |
|
- **sample**: A random selection of 50 problems for quick experimentation |
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from datasets import load_dataset |
|
|
|
# Load the entire dataset with all splits |
|
dataset = load_dataset("alexandonian/project-euler") |
|
|
|
# Work with specific splits |
|
train_problems = dataset["train"] |
|
hard_problems = dataset["hard"] |
|
sample_problems = dataset["sample"] |
|
|
|
# Example: Get a problem |
|
problem = train_problems[0] |
|
print(f"Problem #{problem["id"]}: {problem["title"]}") |
|
print(problem["problem"]) |
|
print(f"Answer: {problem["numerical_answer"]}") |
|
``` |
|
|
|
