Tokenization in Code2Prompt
Tokenizers for code2prompt
When working with language models, text needs to be transformed into a format that the model can understand—tokens, which are sequences of numbers. This transformation is handled by a tokenizer.
What is a Tokenizer?
A tokenizer converts raw text into tokens, which are the building blocks for how language models process input. These tokens can represent words, subwords, or even individual characters, depending on the tokenizer’s design.
For code2prompt, we use the tiktoken tokenizer. It’s efficient, robust, and optimized for OpenAI models.
You can explore its functionality in the official repository
