while loading without features it loads without errors

but the label col seems to be wrong (without the ClassLabel object):

sentences['train'].features
{'label': Value(dtype='string', id=None),
 'text': Value(dtype='string', id=None)}

The dataset was https://huggingface.co/datasets/loretoparisi/tatoeba-sentences

Dataset format is:

ces	Nechci vědět, co je tam uvnitř.
ces	Kdo o tom chce slyšet?
deu	Tom sagte, er fühle sich nicht wohl.
ber	Mel-iyi-d anida-t tura ?
hun	Gondom lesz rá rögtön.
ber	Mel-iyi-d anida-tt tura ?
deu	Ich will dich nicht reden hören.

Expected behavior

correctly load train and test files.

Hi! Casting class labels from strings is currently not supported in the CSV loader, but you can get the same result with an additional map as follows:

@lhoestq IIRC, I suggested adding cast_to_storage to ClassLabel + table_cast to the packaged loaders if the ClassLabel/Image/Audio type is present in features to avoid this kind of error, but your concern was speed. IMO shouldn't be a problem if we do table_cast only when these features are present.

[albertvillanova]

I agree packaged loaders should support ClassLabel feature without throwing an error.

@albertvillanova @mariosasko thank you, with that change now I get

[loretoparisi]

@mariosasko changed it like

sentences = sentences.map(lambda ex: {"label" : features["label"].str2int(ex["label"]) if ex["label"] is not None else None}, features=features)

to avoid the above errorr.

[paulthemagno]

Any update on this? Is this correct ?

@mariosasko changed it like

sentences = sentences.map(lambda ex: {"label" : features["label"].str2int(ex["label"]) if ex["label"] is not None else None}, features=features)
