**Llemma 7B** is a language model for mathematics. It was initialized with [Code Llama 7B](https://github.com/facebookresearch/codellama) weights, and trained on the [Proof-Pile-2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/EleutherAI/proof-pile-2) for 200B tokens. 

This model also comes in a 34B parameter version: [Llemma 34B](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/llemma_34b).

## Evaluations

Llemma models are particularly strong at chain-of-thought mathematical reasoning and using computational tools for mathematics, such as Python and formal theorem provers.


### Chain-of-thought Math
On chain-of-thought mathematics tasks, Llemma models outperform Llama-2, Code Llama, and when controlled for model size, outperform Minerva.

### Tool Use and Theorem Proving
In addition to chain-of-thought reasoning, Llemma has strong capabilities in computational mathematics tasks. For tool use and formal theorem proving evaluations, see [our paper](#).
