	## Dataset Structure

	We show detailed information for up to 5 configurations of the dataset.

	### Data Instances

	#### default

	- Size of downloaded dataset files: 6.77 MB
	- Size of the generated dataset: 6.10 MB
	- Total amount of disk used: 12.87 MB

	An example of 'train' looks as follows.
	```
	{
	"answer": "Glacier caves are often called ice caves , but this term is properly used to describe bedrock caves that contain year-round ice.",
	"document_title": "Glacier cave",
	"label": 0,
	"question": "how are glacier caves formed?",
	"question_id": "Q1"
	}
	```

	### Data Fields

	The data fields are the same among all splits.

	#### default
	- `question_id`: a `string` feature.
	- `question`: a `string` feature.
	- `document_title`: a `string` feature.
	- `answer`: a `string` feature.
	- `label`: a classification label, with possible values including `0` (0), `1` (1).
