How to Compute Mann-Whitney U Test in Python
Compute the Mann-Whitney U statistic and p-value manually in Python with tie correction and a normal approximation for independent samples.
import numpy as np
from scipy import stats
def mann_whitney_u_mock(sample_a, sample_b):
"""Compute Mann-Whitney U and p-value manually."""
# Combine and rank
combined = sample_a + sample_b
n_a, n_b = len(sample_a), len(sample_b)
n_total = n_a + n_b
# Rank with ties handling (average ranks…How to Mock a Confidence Interval for a Proportion in Python
Simulate a Bernoulli sample and compute a 95% confidence interval for a proportion using the normal approximation in Python.
import random
import math
def mock_ci(n=100, p_true=0.5, z=1.96, seed=42):
"""Simulate a sample proportion and compute its 95% confidence interval."""
random.seed(seed)
successes = sum(1 for _ in range(n) if random.random() < p_true)
p_hat = successes / n
se = math.sqrt(p_hat * (1 - p_hat) / n)

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.
