_DESCRIPTION = """\
Recent work in semantic parsing for question answering has focused on long and complicated questions, \
many of which would seem unnatural if asked in a normal conversation between two humans. \
In an effort to explore a conversational QA setting, we present a more realistic task: \
answering sequences of simple but inter-related questions. We created SQA by asking crowdsourced workers \
to decompose 2,022 questions from WikiTableQuestions (WTQ), which contains highly-compositional questions about \
tables from Wikipedia. We had three workers decompose each WTQ question, resulting in a dataset of 6,066 sequences \
that contain 17,553 questions in total. Each question is also associated with answers in the form of cell \
locations in the tables.
