## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

#### default

- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 58.17 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 58.15 MB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 116.33 MB

    "is_duplicate": true,
    "questions": {
        "id": [1, 2],
        "text": ["Is this a sample question?", "Is this an example question?"]
    }
}
```

#### default
- `questions`: a dictionary feature containing:
  - `id`: a `int32` feature.
  - `text`: a `string` feature.
- `is_duplicate`: a `bool` feature.
