# RHEL Learning Quiz App

This is a Python-based quiz application for learning Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) concepts, including scenario-based RHCSA questions. The app tracks your XP, level, and total study time, and provides explanations for each answer to help you learn more effectively.

## Features

- Scenario-based RHCSA questions (imported from `assets/questions.txt`)
- XP and level tracking (XP: +10 for correct, -5 for incorrect; level up every 100 XP)
- Total study time tracking
- Explanations shown after each answer (7th field in questions)
- SQLite database for persistent stats, session logs, and questions
- GUI built with Tkinter
- Automatic migration from legacy text files to SQLite
- All questions shown in each session, in random order

## Getting Started

1. **Install dependencies:**
   ```sh
   pip install -r requirements.txt

Add your questions:
- Edit assets/questions.txt with your questions in the format:
```
Category|Question|Answer1|Answer2|Answer3|CorrectIndex|Explanation
```
  - CorrectIndex is 1-based (1, 2, or 3)
  - Explanation is a short explanation shown after each answer
Run the app:
```
python main.py
```

How It Works

On first run, the app migrates your XP, level, and total time from text files to SQLite (if present).
Questions are imported from assets/questions.txt into the SQLite database, including explanations.
All questions are shuffled and presented in a random order each session.
After each answer, an explanation is shown to help you learn.
XP and level are updated based on your answers (correct: +10 XP, incorrect: -5 XP, level up every 100 XP).
Your total study time and session logs are tracked in the database.
At the end of the session, a summary of your score by category is shown.

File Structure

main.py - Main application logic
assets/questions.txt - Source of all questions (with explanations)
assets/questions_shuffled.txt - Shuffled questions for each session
rhel_learning.db - SQLite database for stats, session logs, and questions
requirements.txt - Python dependencies

Question Format

Each line in assets/questions.txt should be:

Category|Question|Answer1|Answer2|Answer3|CorrectIndex|Explanation

Category: e.g., "User Management", "Networking", etc.
Question: The question text
Answer1, Answer2, Answer3: Multiple choice answers
CorrectIndex: 1-based index of the correct answer (1, 2, or 3)
Explanation: Shown after each answer for learning

Troubleshooting

Make sure your assets/questions.txt includes explanations as the 7th field for each question.
The app requires Python 3 and Tkinter.
If you encounter errors, check that your questions file is formatted correctly and all dependencies are installed.
The app will automatically migrate your old XP, level, and time files to SQLite on first run.
