46-90: Excellent addition to the documentation!

The new section on Index Plots provides a clear and comprehensive explanation of their purpose and utility in retail analytics. The example image and code snippet effectively demonstrate how to create an index plot using the pyretailscience library.

---

122-127: LGTM!

The modifications to the example code for creating a sample DataFrame are minor and do not affect the overall functionality. The changes create a more realistic sample dataset with multiple groups and varying values, which is helpful for demonstrating the Timeline Plot.

---

202-217: Skipping review of placeholder content.

The Cross Shop section contains placeholder text and code, which do not require a thorough review at this stage. The inclusion of the placeholder image and comments helps maintain consistency in the document structure.

---

235-276: Great addition to the documentation!

The new section on Customer Decision Hierarchy (CDH) provides a clear and comprehensive explanation of their purpose and utility in retail analytics. The example image and code snippet effectively demonstrate how to create a CDH plot using the pyretailscience library.

---

278-388: Skipping review of placeholder content.

The various analysis module sections (Revenue Tree, HML Segmentation, Threshold Segmentation, Segmentation Stats, Purchases Per Customer, Days Between Purchases, and Transaction Churn) contain placeholder text and code, which do not require a thorough review at this stage. The inclusion of the placeholder images and comments helps maintain consistency in the document structure.

188-207: Excellent job on expanding the docstring for the index_plot function!

The updated docstring provides a comprehensive explanation of index plots and their applications in retail analytics. The content is well-structured, clear, and informative, making it easier for users to understand the purpose and benefits of using index plots.

Some key highlights:

• Clearly explains what index plots are and how they compare categories or segments against a baseline
• Emphasizes the benefits of using index plots, such as identifying performance discrepancies and facilitating standardized comparisons
• Provides specific examples of how index plots can be used in retail contexts
• Uses bullet points to organize the information, making it easy to read and understand
• Follows the existing format and style of the codebase

Great work on enhancing the documentation for this function!

Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  -- I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  -- Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  -- @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  -- @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  -- @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
  -- @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  -- @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  -- @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
