About

What it is: Unit 2.1 smolagents Code Quiz is a coding quiz app from the Hugging Face agents course, built on the smolagents framework. It serves quiz questions that come from rows of a dataset, agents-course/smolagents-quiz-data. The record also names Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct.

Who it suits: Learners working through the agents course who want to check what they know about smolagents, and teachers who want a small quiz app to adapt.

Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example
Education | Course students | Test their grasp of smolagents code | Answering a quiz question after finishing the unit
Teaching | Instructors | Study a quiz app that reads questions from a dataset | Reading app.py and example.json
Software | Developers | Adapt the app for their own quiz data | Pointing it at a different dataset

You can skip it if you are not learning smolagents, since the questions are about that framework.

Where to use it:

• A web browser, on the Space's own page at Hugging Face
• A copy on your own computer, using Python on Windows, macOS or Linux

Use case | Who | What they get back
Take the quiz | Learners | Coding questions to answer about smolagents
Reuse the app | Instructors and developers | A quiz built on dataset rows, with an example data file

How to set it up:

• A browser, if you only use the Space online
• Python and pip, if you run a copy yourself

1. Open the Space's page on Hugging Face to use it online. Nothing needs installing.
2. For a local copy, install the huggingface_hub package and download the Space's files.
3. Move into the new folder, then install Gradio and the packages in requirements.txt.
4. Start the app with python.

pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download agents-course/unit2_smolagents_quiz --repo-type space --local-dir unit2_smolagents_quiz
cd unit2_smolagents_quiz
pip install gradio==5.15.0
pip install -r requirements.txt

How to use it: Open the Space's page, read each question and answer it with the controls the page shows. On your own computer, start the app first and open the page it serves.

python app.py

Tool | What it does
python app.py | Starts the quiz on your own computer
push_data.ipynb | A notebook in the repository for loading quiz data

Example: You open the quiz and read a question about smolagents code. You answer it on the page and see whether you got it right.

For newcomers and experts: If you are new to this, open the Space and answer a question or two. It is a quick way to find out what you have not yet learned.

For experts, the app reads its questions from a Hugging Face dataset, and example.json shows the row shape. The repository uses uv with a lock file and pins Gradio 5.15.0. It runs on Hugging Face's basic CPU hardware.

Open the quiz
A question comes from the dataset
You answer it on the page
The app shows your result

Good to know:

• Built with Gradio 5.15.0, and the main file is app.py
• License: apache-2
• Cost to run: none named
• Data it reaches: the quiz dataset it names
• The source gives only a short description, so check the page for how the quiz works
