How to Generate an Orthogonal Array for A/B Testing in Python

Generate a mock orthogonal array for multi-layer experiments with NumPy, ensuring balanced level combinations across experiment groups.

    """Generate an orthogonal array for multi-layer experiment design using base-level logic."""
    ortho = np.indices((n_levels,) * n_layers).reshape(n_layers, -1).T
    ortho = ortho % n_levels  # Classic…

Consistent Hashing with Virtual Buckets in Python

This code maps many virtual buckets onto a few physical buckets using a consistent hashing ring, ensuring balanced distribution with minimal remapping when physical buckets change.
