Compare Model A vs Model B Metrics in Python
A script that simulates and compares metrics between two ML models, showing a formatted diff table for quick insight.
import random

"""Mock comparison of model A vs model B predictions."""
metrics = ["accuracy", "precision", "recall", "f1"]
print(f"{'Metric':<12}{'Model A':>10}{'Model B':>10}{'Diff':>10}")
print("-" * 42)
random.seed(42)
for metric in metrics:
a = round(r…
Generate a Mock Multi-Armed Bandit Report in Python
Simulate a multi-armed bandit experiment with random pulls and rewards, then output a JSON report with per-arm statistics.
import random
import json

random.seed(seed)
arms = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"][:num_arms]
true_means = {arm: random.uniform(0.3, 0.7) for arm in arms}
pulls = {arm: 0 for arm in arms}
rewards = {arm: 0 for arm in arms}
