What it measures

1,000 realistic data-science coding problems across NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, Scikit-Learn, Matplotlib, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.

Reading the measurement

The number of permitted attempts changes the question. Pass@1 estimates whether the first submission succeeds; pass@k asks whether at least one of several candidates succeeds. Match sampling, execution limits and candidate selection before reading a gap as better capability.

Published evaluation

Overall pass@1; DS-1000 · reported completion and insertion settings. Model configurations and missing observations follow the original publication.

Where this fits in an evaluation suite

The agent wrapper is part of the system. Pin tools, dependencies, timeouts, tests, and the repository revision. Compare contest coding separately from repository maintenance.

Start with a capability hypothesis, then choose a second test with a different failure mode. Keep the checkpoint, reasoning effort, agent tools, sampling policy, and scoring procedure fixed when measuring a training intervention. Record failures and missing outputs in the denominator.

A reproducible comparison

Overall pass@1; DS-1000 · reported completion and insertion settings. Model configurations and missing observations follow the original publication.

Publish the exact run configuration, item coverage, score units, and available uncertainty. If a source supplies only an aggregate or a single run, preserve that limit. A new model name or a rounded score alone does not establish a capability improvement.
