# Model Card for Codestral-22B-v0.1

Codestral-22B-v0.1 is trained on a diverse dataset of 80+ programming languages, including the most popular ones, such as Python, Java, C, C++, JavaScript, and Bash (more details in the [Blogpost](https://mistral.ai/news/codestral/)). The model can be queried:
- As instruct, for instance to answer any questions about a code snippet (write documentation, explain, factorize) or to generate code following specific indications
- As Fill in the Middle (FIM), to predict the middle tokens between a prefix and a suffix (very useful for software development add-ons like in VS Code)


## Installation

It is recommended to use `mistralai/Codestral-22B-v0.1` with [mistral-inference](https://github.com/mistralai/mistral-inference).

```
pip install mistral_inference
```

## Download

```py
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from pathlib import Path

mistral_models_path = Path.home().joinpath('mistral_models', 'Codestral-22B-v0.1')
mistral_models_path.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

snapshot_download(repo_id="mistralai/Codestral-22B-v0.1", allow_patterns=["params.json", "consolidated.safetensors", "tokenizer.model.v3"], local_dir=mistral_models_path)
```

### Chat

After installing `mistral_inference`, a `mistral-chat` CLI command should be available in your environment.

```
mistral-chat $HOME/mistral_models/Codestral-22B-v0.1 --instruct --max_tokens 256
```

Will generate an answer to "Write me a function that computes fibonacci in Rust" and should give something along the following lines:

```
Sure, here's a simple implementation of a function that computes the Fibonacci sequence in Rust. This function takes an integer `n` as an argument and returns the `n`th Fibonacci number.

fn fibonacci(n: u32) -> u32 {
    match n {
        0 => 0,
        1 => 1,
        _ => fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2),
    }
}

fn main() {
    let n = 10;
    println!("The {}th Fibonacci number is: {}", n, fibonacci(n));
}

This function uses recursion to calculate the Fibonacci number. However, it's not the most efficient solution because it performs a lot of redundant calculations. A more efficient solution would use a loop to iteratively calculate the Fibonacci numbers.
```


### Fill-in-the-middle (FIM)

After installing `mistral_inference` and running `pip install --upgrade mistral_common` to make sure to have mistral_common>=1.2 installed:

```py
from mistral_inference.model import Transformer
from mistral_inference.generate import generate
from mistral_common.tokens.tokenizers.mistral import MistralTokenizer
from mistral_common.tokens.instruct.request import FIMRequest

tokenizer = MistralTokenizer.v3()
model = Transformer.from_folder("~/codestral-22B-240529")

prefix = """def add("""
suffix = """    return sum"""

request = FIMRequest(prompt=prefix, suffix=suffix)

tokens = tokenizer.encode_fim(request).tokens

out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, max_tokens=256, temperature=0.0, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)
result = tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])

middle = result.split(suffix)[0].strip()
print(middle)
```

Should give something along the following lines:

```
num1, num2):

    # Add two numbers
    sum = num1 + num2

    # return the sum
```

## Limitations

The Codestral-22B-v0.1 does not have any moderation mechanisms. We're looking forward to engaging with the community on ways to
make the model finely respect guardrails, allowing for deployment in environments requiring moderated outputs.

## License

Codestral-22B-v0.1 is released under the `MNLP-0.1` license.
