Is Code Better Than Language for Algorithmic Reasoning

1. 1Separate the factors of intermediate representation and execution mechanism
2. 2Implement an intermediate intervention where the model expresses its reasoning as executable code
3. 3Simulate the executable code in context to produce an answer using a language model
4. 4Evaluate the performance of the model on a verifiable algorithmic benchmark
5. 5Compare the results with traditional natural-language reasoning approaches

AI researchers and software engineers can benefit from this approach to improve the accuracy of tool-augmented language models

💡 Using an intermediate intervention where the model expresses its reasoning as executable code can improve the accuracy of tool-augmented language models
