Build a Simple ETL Pipeline in Python
A simple ETL pipeline that reads JSON Lines, transforms records with filtering and normalization, and writes the result to JSON.
import json
from pathlib import Path
def read_input(file_path: Path) -> list[dict]:
"""Read JSON lines file into list of dicts."""
with file_path.open("r", encoding="utf-8") as f:
return [json.loads(line) for line in f if line.strip()]

How to Get the Breadth-First Traversal Order of a Graph in Python
Performs a breadth-first search on an adjacency list and returns the order nodes are visited, using a deque for efficient queue operations.
from collections import deque
def bfs_order(adjacency, start=0):
"""Return the order nodes are visited in a breadth-first traversal."""
visited = set()
order = []
queue = deque([start])
visited.add(start)
while queue:
node = queue.popleft()

"phone": "",
"date_of_birth": "",
"address": "",
"city": "",
"state": "",

ETL in Python: Extract CSV, Transform Dict, Load JSON
Build a simple ETL pipeline in Python that reads a CSV file, transforms each row (stripping whitespace and converting numeric fields), and writes the result to JSON.
import csv
import json

"""Read CSV file and return list of row dictionaries."""
with Path(file_path).open('r', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as f:
reader = csv.DictReader(f)
return list(reader)

How to Build a Pipe and Filter Text Processing Chain in Python
A functional pipe-and-filter chain that transforms text through uppercase, whitespace normalization, number removal, stopword filtering, and file export.
import re
import sys
def pipe_filter_chain(stream):
def uppercase(text):
return text.upper()
def strip_whitespace(text):
return " ".join(text.split())

Bayesian A/B Test Credible Interval in Python
Simulates A/B test data and computes posterior credible intervals and the probability that variant B outperforms A using Bayesian Beta-Binomial inference.
import numpy as np
from scipy import stats
# Simulated A/B test data
n_A = 1000
n_B = 1000
conversions_A = 120
conversions_B = 140
# Prior: Beta(1, 1) uniform
alpha_prior, beta_prior = 1, 1
# Posterior parameters
alpha_A = alpha_prior + conversions_A
beta_A = beta_prior + n_A - conversions_A
alpha_B = alpha_prior +…
How to Conduct a Two-Sample T-Test in Python
Performs Welch's t-test for two independent samples, computing the t-statistic, degrees of freedom, and p-value using NumPy and SciPy.
import numpy as np
def two_sample_t_test(sample1, sample2):
"""Perform Welch's t-test for two independent samples."""
n1, n2 = len(sample1), len(sample2)
mean1, mean2 = np.mean(sample1), np.mean(sample2)
var1, var2 = np.var(sample1, ddof=1), np.var(sample2, ddof=1)
# Standard error of difference
