This video introduces the concept of cohort analysis using a real-world scenario: SpaceStream's user retention challenge. You will learn what a cohort is and why tracking user activity over time is essential for subscription-based services. The video explains three key metrics: **retention rate** (the proportion of the original cohort active in each month), **churn rate** (the fraction that becomes inactive), and **survival rate** (the proportion of users who have stayed active every month up to the current point). The walkthrough demonstrates how to structure your dataset in pandas, with columns for each month and rows for each user, and shows step-by-step calculations for each metric using pandas operations. By the end, you will see how to interpret the results and understand user behavior trends over multiple months.

Vous êtes maintenant chargé de calculer des métriques avancées de rétention pour SpaceStream, un service d’holovision intergalactique. En tant que Lead Data Analyst, vous allez analyser une cohorte de 5 utilisateurs sur trois mois, en suivant qui reste fidèle et qui s’éloigne. L’objectif est de calculer trois métriques essentielles pour chaque mois : **Taux de rétention**, **Taux d’attrition** et **Taux de survie**.

Commencez par examiner le jeu de données fourni, où chaque utilisateur est marqué comme actif (`1`) ou inactif (`0`) pour chaque mois. Les colonnes `month_0`, `month_1` et `month_2` représentent l’activité sur trois mois consécutifs. Votre solution nécessitera l’utilisation de `pandas` pour traiter ce jeu de données et extraire les métriques nécessaires pour chaque mois.

import pandas as pd

data = {
    "user_id": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    "month_0": [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],  # Everyone starts active
    "month_1": [1, 0, 1, 0, 1],  # 3 users active
    "month_2": [1, 0, 0, 0, 0],  # 1 user active
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

# Calculating retention rate: fraction of original cohort active in each month
cohort_size = len(df)
retention_rate = [df[f"month_{i}"].sum() / cohort_size for i in range(3)]

# Calculating churn rate: 1 - retention rate
churn_rate = [1 - r for r in retention_rate]

# Calculating survival rate: fraction of users still active in ALL months up to i
survival_rate = []
for i in range(3):
    still_active = df[[f"month_{j}" for j in range(i + 1)]].all(axis=1).sum()
    survival_rate.append(still_active / cohort_size)

print("retention_rate:", retention_rate)
print("churn_rate:", churn_rate)
print("survival_rate:", survival_rate)

Ce code calcule les métriques requises pour chaque mois. Le **taux de rétention** mesure la fraction de la cohorte initiale encore active à un mois donné. Le **taux d’attrition** correspond simplement à un moins le taux de rétention, indiquant la proportion qui n’est plus active. Le **taux de survie** identifie les utilisateurs qui sont restés continuellement actifs depuis le début jusqu’au mois courant – un utilisateur doit avoir une valeur `1` pour chaque mois écoulé.
