# Can It Edit? Evaluating the Ability of Large Language Models to Follow Code Editing Instructions
CanItEdit is a benchmark for evaluating LLMs on instructional code editing, the task of updating a program given a natural language instruction. The benchmark contains 105 hand-crafted Python programs with before and after code blocks, two types of natural language instructions (descriptive and lazy), and a hidden test suite.
The dataset’s dual natural language instructions test model efficiency in two scenarios:
1) Descriptive: Detailed instructions replicate situations where users provide specific specifications or
another model outlines a plan, similar to Reflexion prompting,
2) Lazy: Informal instructions resemble typical user queries
for LLMs in code generation.
