Implement Causal Inference

Implement a portfolio-ready notebook experiment that proves you can use Causal Inference, not just read about it.

Build brief

You are turning the Causal Inference module into a concrete artifact. Keep the scope small, make the behavior visible, and leave enough notes that another learner can understand the result.

Requirements

  • Use at least two ideas from Causal Inference.
  • Keep the implementation small enough to explain in five minutes.
  • Add three test cases or examples that show normal and edge behavior.
  • Write a short reflection that explains what broke and how you fixed it.

Deliverables

  • A runnable notebook cell sequence for Causal Inference.
  • A short explanation of the math idea in plain language.
  • At least one visualization, table, or numerical sanity check.
