The dataset contains information extracted from the website “Codewars” about different programming exercises created with the intention of fostering or developing abilities and competences. Said exercises are called “katas”. Our dataset collects information from recently solved katas and their statistics, applying the "Approved" filter. The total number of katas in that category amounts to 6.932 (18th March, 2021). Information about the date of execution is not available beyond the previously mentioned filter, but the date of publication of the kata is known. Taking this factor into account, the dataset contains katas published between March 2013 and March 2021.
