PROGRAM EXPLANATION
Algorithm and explanation
- Initialize the sample values used to create a lag feature.
- Apply Lag and Time series to compute the required result.
- Display the result for create a lag feature and compare it with the documented sample output.
This example of create a lag feature computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates Lag and Time series and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST
Common mistakes
Check this
For create a lag feature, keep the data shape and value types consistent with Lag.
Check this
Apply Lag in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.
Check this
Verify the final Lag and Time series result against the sample before trying new data.
Try it yourself
Practice: Run the program with the sample input, predict its output, and then test one boundary case of your own.
