Find all players with the longest winning streak

I am trying to crack the problem of finding the player(s) with the longest streak of winning using Python's 3.2. I am only able to work out an unscalable solution, but I could not come up with a better one yet. Can anyone please help me with a better solution? Also, I am curious how to adapt such solution to output the player(s) with the longest winning streak per month or year?

Below is the sample dataframe players_results

Player_id     Match_Date             Match_Result
401           2021-05-04 00:00:00    W
401           2021-05-09 00:00:00    L
401           2021-05-16 00:00:00    W
401           2021-05-18 00:00:00    W
401           2021-05-22 00:00:00    L
401           2021-06-15 00:00:00    L
401           2021-06-16 00:00:00    W
401           2021-06-18 00:00:00    W
402           2021-05-14 00:00:00    L
402           2021-05-23 00:00:00    L
402           2021-05-24 00:00:00    W
402           2021-06-01 00:00:00    W
402           2021-06-02 00:00:00    W
402           2021-07-01 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-03 00:00:00    L
403           2021-05-11 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-12 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-13 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-20 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-25 00:00:00    W
403           2021-07-06 00:00:00    L
404           2021-05-10 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-16 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-20 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-22 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-28 00:00:00    L
405           2021-05-07 00:00:00    L
405           2021-05-25 00:00:00    W
405           2021-06-06 00:00:00    L
405           2021-06-07 00:00:00    W
405           2021-06-14 00:00:00    W
405           2021-07-01 00:00:00    W

Expected Output

player_id     longest_winningstreak
403           5

ValueError: X has 10 features, but LinearRegression is expecting 1 features as input

So, I am trying to predict the model but its throwing error like it has 10 features but it expacts only 1. So I am confused can anyone help me with it? more importantly its not working for me when my friend runs it. It works perfectly fine dose anyone know the reason about it? cv = KFold(n_splits = 10) all_loss = [] for i in range(9): # 1st for loop over polynomial orders poly_order = i X_train = make_polynomial(x, poly_order) loss_at_order = [] # initiate a set to collect loss for CV for train_index, test_index in cv.split(X_train): print('TRAIN:', train_index, 'TEST:', test_index) X_train_cv, X_test_cv = X_train[train_index], X_test[test_index] t_train_cv, t_test_cv = t[train_index], t[test_index] reg.fit(X_train_cv, t_train_cv) loss_at_order.append(np.mean((t_test_cv - reg.predict(X_test_cv))**2)) # collect loss at fold all_loss.append(np.mean(loss_at_order)) # collect loss at order plt.plot(np.log(al...

Sorting large arrays of big numeric stings

I was solving bigSorting() problem from hackerrank: Consider an array of numeric strings where each string is a positive number with anywhere from to digits. Sort the array's elements in non-decreasing, or ascending order of their integer values and return the sorted array. I know it works as follows: def bigSorting(unsorted): return sorted(unsorted, key=int) But I didnt guess this approach earlier. Initially I tried below: def bigSorting(unsorted): int_unsorted = [int(i) for i in unsorted] int_sorted = sorted(int_unsorted) return [str(i) for i in int_sorted] However, for some of the test cases, it was showing time limit exceeded. Why is it so? PS: I dont know exactly what those test cases were as hacker rank does not reveal all test cases. source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73007397/sorting-large-arrays-of-big-numeric-stings
