dqnCode-v1

dqnCode-v1 is a 4B-parameter language model designed for fast, clear, and practical coding assistance.

It focuses on writing, fixing, and explaining code efficiently, with minimal verbosity and strong real-world usefulness. It is optimized for everyday programming tasks with low latency and concise outputs.

Benchmark

dqnCode-v1 is positioned as a high-performance compact coding model, with strong results on standard code generation benchmarks. It is trained with simple prompts in mind, so you don't need to be a developer to use it!

HumanEval

• pass@1: 63.4%

This score places dqnCode-v1 among the strongest models in the 4B parameter class for coding tasks (only beaten by one other model in the 4B or below models class!)

---

Benchmark Context

• Evaluated on HumanEval (Python code generation benchmark)
• Focused on functional correctness of generated code
• Designed to reflect real-world coding performance in a compact model

---

Positioning

dqnCode-v1 is designed to deliver coding performance comparable to significantly larger models while maintaining a small footprint.

• Approaches GPT-3.5 / GPT-4-level performance on many practical coding tasks
• Achieves strong performance with significantly fewer parameters
• Optimized for fast local inference and real-world development workflows
• Excellent at all languages, especially HTML-CSS-JS, Python, Java, and more!

Model Description

• Model type: Causal Language Model
• Parameters: 4B
• Primary use: Coding and programming assistance
• Style: Direct code generation with minimal explanation

dqnCode-v1 4B is optimized for practical coding workflows rather than long-form development or benchmark performance.

Example

Input

Write a Python function to check if a number is prime

Output

def is_prime(n):
    if n < 2:
        return False
    for i in range(2, int(n**0.5) + 1):
        if n % i == 0:
            return False
    return True

---

Input

Fix this code:
for i in range(5)
    print(i)

Output

for i in range(5):
    print(i)
