Issue: Can't map dataset (loaded from csv)
State: closed

Hello! I am trying to load single csv file with two columns: ('label': str, 'text' str), where is label is str of two possible classes.

Below steps are similar with [this notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1-JIJlao4dI-Ilww_NnTc0rxtp-ymgDgM?usp=sharing), where bert model and tokenizer are used to classify lmdb loaded dataset. Only one difference it is the dataset loaded from .csv file.
Here is how I load it:

```python
data_path = 'data.csv'
data = pd.read_csv(data_path)

# process class name to indices
classes = ['neg', 'pos']
class_to_idx = { cl: i for i, cl in enumerate(classes) }

# now data is like {'label': int, 'text' str}
data['label'] = data['label'].apply(lambda x: class_to_idx[x])

# load dataset and map it with defined `tokenize` function
features = Features({
  target: ClassLabel(num_classes=2, names=['neg', 'pos'], names_file=None, id=None),
  feature: Value(dtype='string', id=None),
})
dataset = Dataset.from_pandas(data, features=features)
dataset.map(tokenize, batched=True, batch_size=len(dataset))
```

It ruins on the last line with following error:
```

```

which I think is not expected. I also tried the same steps using `Dataset.from_csv` which resulted in the same error.

For reproducing this, I used [this dataset from kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/team-ai/spam-text-message-classification)

Please could you post the whole script? I can't reproduce your issue. After updating the feature names/labels to match with the data, everything works fine for me. Try to update datasets/transformers to the newest version.

Actually, the problem was how `tokenize` function was defined. This was completely my side mistake, so there are really no needs in this issue anymore
