## What it is
GSM8K is a dataset of 8.5K linguistically diverse grade school math word problems (7.5K train, 1K test) released by OpenAI to diagnose multi-step mathematical reasoning in language models. The repository also includes helper code for calculator-annotated sampling and solution extraction.

## Use cases
- benchmark llm math reasoning
- evaluate chain-of-thought on word problems
- finetune models on multi-step arithmetic
- test calculator-annotated sampling
- research multi-step reasoning failures

## When to choose
- you need a standard math reasoning benchmark for language models
- you want human-written grade school word problems with verifiable numeric answers
- you are reproducing or extending the GSM8K paper

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained tooling or support
- you need advanced mathematics beyond grade school arithmetic
- you need a general-purpose math solver rather than evaluation data

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: abandoned
- function: machine-learning, benchmarking, math, data-science
- domain: large-language-models, machine-learning, mathematics
- platform: python
- tags: gsm8k, math-word-problems, reasoning-benchmark, llm-evaluation, archived, natural-language-processing
