Choose the right data for survival analysis

Let's say you're working on estimating the rate at which a new strain of virus spreads in a population. It's always good practice to explore the data you have available before deciding whether to use a statistical model. Look out for any model assumptions and requirements for the data.

Three datasets have been loaded for you, called

  • virus_record_a
  • virus_record_b
  • virus_record_c

Inspect each DataFrame in the console. Which of the DataFrames would be suitable for survival analysis?

pandas and numpy are loaded as pd and np, respectively.
