There are almost no contradictions between each implementations of fractions of characters in the most common
n-gram. The main process involves counting the occurrences of each n-gram and selecting the most common one. The
fraction is then determined by dividing the number of characters in the most common n-gram by the total number of
characters. One minor difference is that Dolma and DataTrove calculate the fraction of the most common n-gram even
if it only appears once, while RedPajama V2 skips this case.
We choose to follow Dolma and DataTrove by not skipping cases where the most common n-gram occurs only once.
In practice, documents affected by this rule — where the most common n-gram exceeds a given threshold and occurs
only once — tend to be short.

After careful filtering, although data quality has improved, a large fraction of the content is repeated across documents.
