### Run the examples
Examples are included in the repository but are not shipped with the library.
Therefore, in order to run the latest versions of the examples you also need to install from source. To do so, create a new virtual environment and follow these steps:
```bash
git clone git@github.com:huggingface/transformers
cd transformers
pip install[--editable] .
```
### Tests
A series of tests are included for the library and the example scripts. Library tests can be found in the [tests folder](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/transformers/tests) and examples tests in the [examples folder](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples).

These implementations have been tested on several datasets (see the example scripts) and should match the performances of the original implementations (e.g. ~93 F1 on SQuAD for BERT Whole-Word-Masking, ~88 F1 on RocStories for OpenAI GPT, ~18.3 perplexity on WikiText 103 for Transformer-XL, ~0.916 Peason R coefficient on STS-B for XLNet).

#### Using the past
GPT-2 as well as some other models (GPT, XLNet, Transfo-XL, CTRL) make use of a `past` or `mems` attribute which can be used to prevent re-computing the key/value pairs when using sequential decoding. It is useful when generating sequences as a big part of the attention mechanism benefits from previous computations.
Here is a fully-working example using the `past` with `GPT2LMHeadModel` and argmax decoding (which should only be used as an example, as argmax decoding introduces a lot of repetition):
