While I understand that, how can this work be used to, say, analyze novice/student coding behaviors? Furthermore, does selecting the GitHub repos subject code2vec to be bias toward specific design patterns?

To play devil's advocate, could I just run code2vec across different repos to see if they are "real enough"?

I like to library and just printed out the paper to read, but since my focus is more with learning to program, this sounds like a tools I'd love to be able to use for analysis, but I'm being told no.
