## Model Summary

This is the Megatron-version of StarCoderBase. We refer the reader to the [StarCoderBase model page](https://huggingface.co/bigcode/starcoderbase) for full documentation about this model

The StarCoderBase models are 15.5B parameter models trained on 80+ programming languages from [The Stack (v1.2)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/the-stack), with opt-out requests excluded. The model uses [Multi Query Attention](https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.02150), [a context window of 8192 tokens](https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.14135),  and was trained using the [Fill-in-the-Middle objective](https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.14255) on 1 trillion tokens.

- **Languages:** 80+ Programming languages


## Use

### Intended use

The model was trained on GitHub code. As such it is _not_ an instruction model and commands like "Write a function that computes the square root." do not work well. However, by using the [Tech Assistant prompt](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/ta-prompt) you can turn it into a capable technical assistant.


### 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. We provide a [search index](https://huggingface.co/spaces/bigcode/starcoder-search) 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 to generate 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 paper](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cN-b9GnWtHzQRoE7M7gAEyivY0kl4BYs/view) for an in-depth discussion of the model limitations.
