Hello,

i’ve been trying to get some work done on my project and wanted to use the evaluate library to write a function, but i can’t seem to get the import for the library working.

Those are my imports:

```auto
from transformers import (
    AutoModelForSequenceClassification,
    AutoTokenizer,
    DataCollatorWithPadding,
    TrainingArguments,
    Trainer,
)
from peft import (
    get_peft_config,
    get_peft_model,
)
from datasets import Dataset, DatasetDict
import pandas as pd
import evaluate
import numpy as np
import torch

```

Every single one of these work except the evaluate import. I have installed the necessary package (also tried to remove and install again):

```auto
pip list

The error when i hover in VSCode is “Import “evaluate” could not be resolved Pylance(reportMissingImports)” and when I try to actually run the code I get:

```auto
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last)

     12 from datasets import Dataset, DatasetDict
     13 import pandas as pd

     15 import numpy as np
     16 import torch

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'evaluate'

```

I hope you can help me with the information I provided, i can also give some more if you see need, thank you for the help!
