Dataset Summary
Dataset with the text of 10% of questions and answers from the Stack Overflow programming Q&A website.
This is organized as three tables:
Questions table contains the title, body, creation date, closed date (if applicable), score, and owner ID for all non-deleted Stack Overflow questions whose Id is a multiple of 10. Answers table contains the body, creation date, score, and owner ID for each of the answers to these questions. The ParentId column links back to the Questions table. Tags table contains the tags on each of these questions.
Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
Example projects include:
- Identifying tags from question text
- Predicting whether questions will be upvoted, downvoted, or closed based on their text
- Predicting how long questions will take to answer
- Open Domain Q/A
Languages
English (en) and Programming Languages.

Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact of Dataset
StackOverflow answers are not guaranteed to be safe, secure, or correct. Some answers may purposefully be insecure as is done in this https://stackoverflow.com/a/35571883/5768407 answer from user zys
, where they show a solution to purposefully bypass Google Play store security checks. Such answers can lead to biased models that use this data and can further propogate unsafe and insecure programming practices.
