| [CodeParrot](https://huggingface.co/lvwerra/codeparrot) uses GPT-2 architecture with BPE tokenizer trained on Python code. We released this model as an educational tool for training large language models from scratch on code, with detailed tutorials and descriptions of the training process. It makes use of [Accelerate](https://huggingface.co/docs/accelerate/index) for distributed training and mixed precision. See this [blog](https://huggingface.co/blog/codeparrot) and [repo](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/main/examples/research_projects/codeparrot) for more details. | |
| |Model | # parameters | | |
| | - | - | | |
| | GPT2 | 110M | | |
| | GPT2 | 1.5B | | |
| You can load the model and tokenizer directly from `transformers`: | |
| ```python | |
| from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelWithLMHead | |
| tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("lvwerra/codeparrot") | |
| model = AutoModelWithLMHead.from_pretrained("lvwerra/codeparrot") | |
| inputs = tokenizer("def hello_world():", return_tensors="pt") | |
| outputs = model(**inputs) | |
| ``` | |
| Or you can use a `pipeline`: | |
| ```python | |
| from transformers import pipeline | |
| pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="lvwerra/codeparrot") | |
| outputs = pipe("def hello_world():") | |
| ``` |
