Given a function signature, can we create a model that will predict the body of that function?

How can we quickly gather a lot of function examples?

Look at open source projects on GitHub

Gathering Data

We filtered only TypeScript files and extracted 324,280 TypeScript functions and collected them in a huge JSON file.

Using Google BigQuery we can run an SQL query to fetch all the code on GitHub in under a minute!
