Install Cohort Day-1 Retention Report

Hard

A game analytics pipeline stores player activity in one table: activity columns: player_id: player identifier device_id: device used during that daily session event_date: session date in YYYY-MM-DD games_played: number of games played that day The pair (player_id, event_date) is unique. Definitions: install_dt for a player = the earliest event_date for that player. day-1 retained player = a player who has an event on install_dt + 1 day. day1_retention for cohort date x = retained_players_in_cohort_x / installs_in_cohort_x. Task: For each install_dt cohort, return: install_dt installs (number of players whose first login is install_dt) day1_retention rounded to 2 decimals Output requirements: Return columns: install_dt, installs, day1_retention Sort by install_dt ascending Supported submission environments: SQL (SQLite 3.27.2) Pandas (Python)
