# Hugging Face course section 5 .zst datasets
You can use [these datasets](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mdroth/PubMed-200k-RTC/tree/main/data) for whatever you want (note the [Apache 2.0 license](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mdroth/PubMed-200k-RTC/blob/main/data/Apache_2.0), though) but their primary purpose is to serve as a drop-in replacement for the sub-datasets of [The Pile](https://pile.eleuther.ai/) used in [section 5](https://huggingface.co/learn/nlp-course/chapter5/4?fw=pt#what-is-the-pile) of the [HuggingFace course](https://huggingface.co/learn/nlp-course/chapter5/4?fw=pt#what-is-the-pile).
