polars is loaded as pl. The DataFrame bikes is available with columns time, rentals, and temp.
This exercise is part of the course
Data Transformation with Polars
Exercise instructions
- Set up the 3-hour rolling window on the
timecolumn. - Calculate the sum of
rentalsand the mean oftempin the aggregation.

Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Set up the 3-hour rolling window
bikes.rolling(index_column="____", period="____").agg(
# Calculate sum of rentals and mean of temp
pl.col("rentals").____().alias("rolling_total"),
pl.col("temp").____().alias("rolling_mean_temp")
)
