### Dataset Summary

Stanford Question Answering Dataset (SQuAD) is a reading comprehension dataset, consisting of questions posed by crowdworkers on a set of Wikipedia articles, where the answer to every question is a segment of text, or span, from the corresponding reading passage, or the question might be unanswerable.

SQuAD 2.0 combines the 100,000 questions in SQuAD1.1 with over 50,000 unanswerable questions written adversarially by crowdworkers
to look similar to answerable ones. To do well on SQuAD2.0, systems must not only answer questions when possible, but
also determine when no answer is supported by the paragraph and abstain from answering.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Question Answering.

### Languages

English (`en`).

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

#### squad_v2

- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 46.49 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 128.52 MB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 175.02 MB

An example of 'validation' looks as follows.
```
This example was too long and was cropped:

{
"answers": {
"answer_start": [94, 87, 94, 94],
"text": ["10th and 11th centuries", "in the 10th and 11th centuries", "10th and 11th centuries", "10th and 11th centuries"]
},
"context": "\"The Normans (Norman: Nourmands; French: Normands; Latin: Normanni) were the people who in the 10th and 11th centuries gave thei...",
"id": "56ddde6b9a695914005b9629",
"question": "When were the Normans in Normandy?",
"title": "Normans"
}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits.

#### squad_v2
- `id`: a `string` feature.
- `title`: a `string` feature.
- `context`: a `string` feature.
- `question`: a `string` feature.
- `answers`: a dictionary feature containing:
- `text`: a `string` feature.
- `answer_start`: a `int32` feature.
