Interpret lab
Explain the model without overclaiming
Use the model output as a clue, then compare it with the filtered data.
Puzzle target
Use satisfaction, chart net revenue, and include the derived net revenue column.
Working dataset
| City | Region | Visits | Signups | Revenue | Satisfaction |

This is intentionally small: change one feature, keep a holdout split, and explain what changed before trusting the model.

Before charting or modeling a dataset, which move should come first?
Work directly with the dataset lab below. The controls change the rows, derived columns, visual, and tiny model summary in place.
| Practice surface | What you manipulate |
|---|---|
| Dataset | Campaign rows with visits, signups, revenue, satisfaction, and promo cost |
| Transform | Filters, derived net revenue, metric choice, and sorting |
| Model | One-feature prediction with a train and holdout split |
| Goal | Compare model output with transformed data before making a claim. |
Practice Task
- Use satisfaction, chart net revenue, and explain the result against the filtered dataset.
- Watch the checklist in the lab update as the dataset state changes.
- Use the table, visual, and model card together before deciding what the data says.
