### Dataset Summary

This dataset comprises of open-domain question-answer pairs obtained from extracting 100K FAQ URLs from C4 dataset. Please refer to the original [`paper`](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.10683) and [`dataset card`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/c4) for more details.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
c4_faqs_dataset = load_dataset("vishal-burman/c4-faqs")
```

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

An example of a single dataset point:
```python
{'faq_pairs': [{'question': 'What should I bring for the tour?', 'answer': 'Nothing special, just be ready to walk for bit and potentially something to protect you from poltergeists and rain. Any kind of amulet or protection stone is also welcome.'}, {'question': 'Can kids join too ?', 'answer': 'Yes, we accept kids from 6 years old and on! We also have a family discount, if you book for 2 adults and 2 kids!'}, {'question': 'Where is the meeting point ?', 'answer': 'Brussels has many paved roads and those are hardly accessible with a wheelchair, for that reason we have to unfortunately label our tour as not wheelchair accessible.'}]}
```

### Data Fields

The data have several fields:

- `url`: URL of the webpage containing the FAQs
- `faq_pairs`: A list of question-answer pairs extracted from the webpage
  - `question`: A single question as a string
