# C4 EN 10K for testing

This is a small subset representing the first 10K records of the original C4 dataset, "en" subset - created for testing. The records were extracted after having been shuffled.

The full 1TB+ dataset is at https://huggingface.co/datasets/c4.

```
$ python -c "from datasets import load_dataset; ds=load_dataset('stas/c4-en-10k'); print(ds)"
DatasetDict({
    train: Dataset({
        features: ['text'],
        num_rows: 10000
    })
})
```

* Records: 10,000
* compressed size: 6.4M
* uncompressed size: 22M

To convert to jsonlines:

```
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset_name = "stas/c4-en-10k"
name = dataset_name.split('/')[-1]
ds = load_dataset(dataset_name, split='train')
ds.to_json(f"{name}.jsonl", orient="records", lines=True)
```
