Divide by zero error when following ch7 tutorial
I am using the ch 7 tutorial () to fine-tune an LM on my dataset. And, here is the error log:The following columns in the training set don't have a corresponding argument in `DistilBertForMaskedLM.forward` and have been ignored: text. If text are not expected by `DistilBertForMaskedLM.forward`,  you can safely ignore this message.

ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zeroThe only difference between the tutorial and what I have done is to load the dataset from a csv, as opposed to hub. Can someone please tell me what could I be doing wrong?

Exactly same problem here too.Training Wav2Vec2 by followingBlog link. Same change made, loading dataset from csv file.trieddf=pd.read_csv("kspsp.csv")
dataset=Dataset.from_pandas(df)\anddataset = load_dataset("csv",data_files="kspsp.csv")

okkular:ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zeroThe super class of ZeroDivisionError is ArithmeticError. This exception raised when the second argument of a division or modulo operation is zero.  In Mathematics, when a number is divided by a zero, the result is an infinite number. It is impossible to write an Infinite number physically. Python interpreter throws “ZeroDivisionError: division by zero” error if the result is infinite number. While implementing any program logic and there is division operation make sure always handle ArithmeticError or ZeroDivisionError so that program will not terminate.try:
    z = x / y
except ZeroDivisionError:
    z = 0Or check before you do the division:if y == 0:
    z = 0
else:
    z = x / yThe latter can be reduced to:z = 0 if y == 0 else (x / y)

ronaldgevern’s suggestion, while a reasonable explanation of what a ZeroDivisionError is, isn’t applicable in this instance because the exception is coming from PyArrow, not from any code likely written by the people with this issue.It looks like the dataset that you pass to your trainer is empty. For me, this error was coming when I accidentally passed the untokenized dataset to the trainer instead of the tokenized one. There could be other reasons, so if that wasn’t it, investigate other possible causes of the data being missing.

@okkularDid you solve it, I had a similar problem
2023-02-26T03:48:49Z
I encountered same problem when I was transforming dataset on-the-fly.The solution worked for me is to setremove_unused_columns=FalsetoTrainingArgumentsin order to prevent non-forward arguments from being removed byTrainer.The problem was that the target column (textin this case) is not in theforwardarguments and such columns will be dropped by trainer by default.I was tying to access a column when encoding text on-the-fly which does not exist in the remaining dataset, thus this error occurred, although I personally thinkKeyErrorshould be more intuitive.
