<p>The schema below is for a retail online shopping company consisting of two tables, <code>attribution</code> and <code>user_sessions</code>.</p>

<ul>
<li><p>The attribution table logs a session visit for each row.</p></li>

<li><p>If <code>conversion</code> is <code>true</code>, then the user converted to buying on that session.</p></li>

<li><p>The <code>channel</code> column represents which advertising platform the user was attributed to for that specific session.</p></li>

<li><p>Lastly the <code>user_sessions</code> table maps many to one session visits back to one user.</p></li>
</ul>

<p>Imagine you are asked to build a machine learning model to decide new loan approvals for a
financial firm. You ask the data department in the company for a subset of data to get started
working on the problem. The data includes different features about applicants such as age,
occupation, zip code, height, number of children, favorite color, etc. You decide to build
multiple machine learning models to test out different ideas before settling on the best one.</p>

building and choosing a model to use?</p>

<p>The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, usually starting with 0 and 1. It is often used in algorithm examples, and is defined by the following formula: F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2), with F(0) = 0 and F(1) = 1.</p>

<p>Your task is to implement the Fibonacci algorithm in three different methods:
1. Recursively
2. Iteratively
3. Using Memoization</p>

<p><strong>Example 1:</strong></p>

<p><strong>Input:</strong></p>

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code><span class="line"><span class="cl"><span class="n">n</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mi">5</span>
</span></span></code></pre>

</span></span></code></pre>

<p><strong>Example 2:</strong></p>

<p><strong>Input:</strong></p>

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code><span class="line"><span class="cl"><span class="n">n</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mi">10</span>

<p>Why would the same machine learning algorithm generate different success rates using the same dataset?</p>

<p>Given two strings, <code>string1</code> and <code>string2</code>, write a function <code>str_map</code> to determine if there exists a one-to-one correspondence (bijection) between the characters of <code>string1</code> and <code>string2</code>.</p>

<p>For the two strings, our correspondence must be between characters in the same position/index.</p>

<p>Let’s say you are designing a marketplace for your website.</p>

<p>Selling firearms is prohibited by your website’s Terms of Service Agreement (not to mention the laws of your country). To this end, you want to create a system that can automatically detect if a listing on the marketplace is selling a gun.</p>

While designing a system to detect firearms listings on a marketplace website, what metrics could be used to minimize both false positives and false negatives?

<p>There are two tables. One table is called <code>swipes</code> that holds a row for every Tinder swipe and contains a boolean column that determines if the swipe was a right or left swipe called <code>is_right_swipe</code>. The second is a table named <code>variants</code> that determines which user has which variant of an AB test.</p>

<p>Write a SQL query to output the average number of right swipes for two different variants of a feed ranking algorithm by comparing users that have swiped 10, 50, and 100 swipes in a <code>feed_change</code> experiment.</p>

<p><em>Note: Users have to have swiped at least 10 times to be included in the subset of users to analyze the mean number of right swipes.</em></p>

<p>As a data scientist at a real estate analytics startup, you’re tasked with building a predictive model for home prices in a large metropolitan area. During your exploratory data analysis, you notice that the <code>home_prices</code> column in your dataset is heavily right-skewed (i.e., there are many lower-priced homes and a few extremely high-priced ones).</p>

<p>How might this skewness impact your modeling approach, and what steps would you consider to address it before training your model?</p>

<p><em>Bonus: If, instead, you discover that the target variable (<code>home_prices</code>) is heavily left-skewed (i.e., there are many high-priced homes and a few low-priced outliers), what would you do differently, if anything?</em></p>


You're building a model to predict home prices and you see that the prices in your training data are right-skewed. How would you handle this situation?
