In these, relevant documents share many words or meanings with the query. Many real needs are harder. A programmer may need documentation for a function that is never named in the question, or a student may need a problem… 2. **[Can Language Models Solve Olympiad Programming?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/shi-2024-language-models-solve-olympiad-programming/)** *(2024 · 28 citations)* Widely used code benchmarks such as HumanEval and MBPP are now nearly saturated, so they no longer show where language models fall short in algorithmic reasoning. ## All works 3 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1.
