A simple epsilon-greedy multi-armed bandit simulation that balances exploration and exploitation to estimate true means of several Bernoulli-like reward distributions.

Generate simulated interrupted time series data with a pre/post-intervention trend, level shift, and noise to test segmented regression models.
import numpy as np

n_post = 50
time = np.arange(0, n_pre + n_post)
# Pre-intervention: linear trend + noise
pre_trend = 0.05 * time[:n_pre] + np.random.normal(0, 0.5, n_pre)

A/B testing & experimentation — Python code examples
What you will find here
This page collects a/b testing & experimentation snippets — short, copy-ready Python you can paste into our free online IDE and run without installing anything. Each sample includes a plain-English explanation and the full source code.
Samples vs tutorials and challenges
Samples are quick reference — one concept per page. For step-by-step teaching, use our Python tutorials. To test yourself, try quizzes or coding challenges. Clean up style with the Python formatter.
