3 Statistics Concepts You Should Know for Data Science Interviews
Data scientists are basically modern statisticians. Below are 3 general types of statistics questions that you’ll most likely come across in a data science interview. The reason that these come up so frequently is that they serve as the fundamental building blocks for many data science applications, like Bayesian Machine Learning or Hypothesis Testing.
Keep in mind that there are many many many statistical concepts that are important — for example, I didn’t include Central Limit Theorem but that is still an important concept to know when talking about probability distributions, so take what you’d like out of this.
With that said, here we go!
1. Bayes Theorem / Conditional Probability
Plain and simple, you need to understand Bayes Theorem and conditional probability (see below for equations). One of the most popular machine learning algorithms, Naive Bayes, is built on these two concepts. Additionally, if you enter the realm of **online **machine learning, you’ll most likely be using Bayesian methods.
Bayes Theorem
Conditional Probability
Example Question: You’re about to get on a plane to Seattle. You want to know if you should bring an umbrella. You call 3 random friends of yours who live there and ask each independently if it’s raining. Each of your friends has a 2/3 chance of telling you the truth and a 1/3 chance of messing with you by lying. All 3 friends tell you that “Yes” it is raining. What is the probability that it’s actually raining in Seattle?
Answer: You can tell that this question is related to Bayesian theory because of the last statement which essentially follows the structure, “What is the probability A is true given B is true?” Therefore we need to know the probability of it raining in London on a given day. Let’s assume it’s 25%.
P(A) = probability of it raining = 25%
P(B) = probability of all 3 friends say that it’s raining
P(A|B) probability that it’s raining given they’re telling that it is raining
P(B|A) probability that all 3 friends say that it’s raining given it’s raining = (2/3)³ = 8/27
Step 1: Solve for P(B)
P(A|B) = P(B|A) * P(A) / P(B), can be rewritten as
P(B) = P(B|A) * P(A) + P(B|not A) * P(not A)
P(B) = (2/3)³ * 0.25 + (1/3)³ * 0.75 = 0.258/27 + 0.751/27
Step 2: Solve for P(A|B)
P(A|B) = 0.25 * (8/27) / ( 0.258/27 + 0.751/27)
P(A|B) = 8 / (8 + 3) = 8/11
Therefore, if all three friends say that it’s raining, then there’s an 8/11 chance that it’s actually raining.

A Pure PHP Implementation Of The MessagePack Serialization Format
msgpack.php
A pure PHP implementation of the MessagePack serialization format.
Features
- Fully compliant with the latest MessagePack specification
- Supports streaming unpacking
- Supports unsigned 64-bit integers handling
- Supports object serialization
- Fully tested
- Relatively fast
Installation
The recommended way to install the library is through Composer:
composer require rybakit/msgpack
Usage
Packing
To pack values you can either use an instance of a Packer:
$packer = new Packer();
$packed = $packer->pack($value);
or call a static method on the MessagePack class:
$packed = MessagePack::pack($value);
In the examples above, the method pack automatically packs a value depending on its type. However, not all PHP types can be uniquely translated to MessagePack types. For example, the MessagePack format defines map and array types, which are represented by a single array type in PHP. By default, the packer will pack a PHP array as a MessagePack array if it has sequential numeric keys, starting from 0 and as a MessagePack map otherwise:
$mpArr1 = $packer->pack([1, 2]); // MP array [1, 2]
$mpArr2 = $packer->pack([0 => 1, 1 => 2]); // MP array [1, 2]
$mpMap1 = $packer->pack([0 => 1, 2 => 3]); // MP map {0: 1, 2: 3}
$mpMap2 = $packer->pack([1 => 2, 2 => 3]); // MP map {1: 2, 2: 3}
$mpMap3 = $packer->pack(['a' => 1, 'b' => 2]); // MP map {a: 1, b: 2}
However, sometimes you need to pack a sequential array as a MessagePack map. To do this, use the packMap method:
$mpMap = $packer->packMap([1, 2]); // {0: 1, 1: 2}
Here is a list of type-specific packing methods:
$packer->packNil(); // MP nil
$packer->packBool(true); // MP bool
$packer->packInt(42); // MP int
$packer->packFloat(M_PI); // MP float (32 or 64)
$packer->packFloat32(M_PI); // MP float 32
$packer->packFloat64(M_PI); // MP float 64
$packer->packStr('foo'); // MP str
$packer->packBin("\x80"); // MP bin
$packer->packArray([1, 2]); // MP array
$packer->packMap(['a' => 1]); // MP map
$packer->packExt(1, "\xaa"); // MP ext
Check the "Custom types" section below on how to pack custom types.
Packing options
The Packer object supports a number of bitmask-based options for fine-tuning the packing process (defaults are in bold):
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
FORCE_STR | Forces PHP strings to be packed as MessagePack UTF-8 strings |
FORCE_BIN | Forces PHP strings to be packed as MessagePack binary data |
DETECT_STR_BIN | Detects MessagePack str/bin type automatically |
FORCE_ARR | Forces PHP arrays to be packed as MessagePack arrays |
FORCE_MAP | Forces PHP arrays to be packed as MessagePack maps |
DETECT_ARR_MAP | Detects MessagePack array/map type automatically |
FORCE_FLOAT32 | Forces PHP floats to be packed as 32-bits MessagePack floats |
FORCE_FLOAT64 | Forces PHP floats to be packed as 64-bits MessagePack floats |
The type detection mode (
DETECT_STR_BIN/DETECT_ARR_MAP) adds some overhead which can be noticed when you pack large (16- and 32-bit) arrays or strings. However, if you know the value type in advance (for example, you only work with UTF-8 strings or/and associative arrays), you can eliminate this overhead by forcing the packer to use the appropriate type, which will save it from running the auto-detection routine. Another option is to explicitly specify the value type. The library provides 2 auxiliary classes for this,MapandBin. Check the "Custom types" section below for details.
Examples:
// detect str/bin type and pack PHP 64-bit floats (doubles) to MP 32-bit floats
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::DETECT_STR_BIN | PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT32);
// these will throw MessagePack\Exception\InvalidOptionException
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::FORCE_STR | PackOptions::FORCE_BIN);
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT32 | PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT64);
Unpacking
To unpack data you can either use an instance of a BufferUnpacker:
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker();
$unpacker->reset($packed);
$value = $unpacker->unpack();
or call a static method on the MessagePack class:
$value = MessagePack::unpack($packed);
If the packed data is received in chunks (e.g. when reading from a stream), use the tryUnpack method, which attempts to unpack data and returns an array of unpacked messages (if any) instead of throwing an InsufficientDataException:
while ($chunk = ...) {
$unpacker->append($chunk);
if ($messages = $unpacker->tryUnpack()) {
return $messages;
}
}
If you want to unpack from a specific position in a buffer, use seek:
$unpacker->seek(42); // set position equal to 42 bytes
$unpacker->seek(-8); // set position to 8 bytes before the end of the buffer
To skip bytes from the current position, use skip:
$unpacker->skip(10); // set position to 10 bytes ahead of the current position
To get the number of remaining (unread) bytes in the buffer:
$unreadBytesCount = $unpacker->getRemainingCount();
To check whether the buffer has unread data:
$hasUnreadBytes = $unpacker->hasRemaining();
If needed, you can remove already read data from the buffer by calling:
$releasedBytesCount = $unpacker->release();
With the read method you can read raw (packed) data:
$packedData = $unpacker->read(2); // read 2 bytes
Besides the above methods BufferUnpacker provides type-specific unpacking methods, namely:
$unpacker->unpackNil(); // PHP null
$unpacker->unpackBool(); // PHP bool
$unpacker->unpackInt(); // PHP int
$unpacker->unpackFloat(); // PHP float
$unpacker->unpackStr(); // PHP UTF-8 string
$unpacker->unpackBin(); // PHP binary string
$unpacker->unpackArray(); // PHP sequential array
$unpacker->unpackMap(); // PHP associative array
$unpacker->unpackExt(); // PHP MessagePack\Type\Ext object
Unpacking options
The BufferUnpacker object supports a number of bitmask-based options for fine-tuning the unpacking process (defaults are in bold):
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
BIGINT_AS_STR | Converts overflowed integers to strings [1] |
BIGINT_AS_GMP | Converts overflowed integers to GMP objects [2] |
BIGINT_AS_DEC | Converts overflowed integers to Decimal\Decimal objects [3] |
1. The binary MessagePack format has unsigned 64-bit as its largest integer data type, but PHP does not support such integers, which means that an overflow can occur during unpacking.
2. Make sure the GMP extension is enabled.
3. Make sure the Decimal extension is enabled.
Examples:
$packedUint64 = "\xcf"."\xff\xff\xff\xff"."\xff\xff\xff\xff";
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // string(20) "18446744073709551615"
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64, UnpackOptions::BIGINT_AS_GMP);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // object(GMP) {...}
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64, UnpackOptions::BIGINT_AS_DEC);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // object(Decimal\Decimal) {...}
Custom types
In addition to the basic types, the library provides functionality to serialize and deserialize arbitrary types. This can be done in several ways, depending on your use case. Let's take a look at them.
Type objects
If you need to serialize an instance of one of your classes into one of the basic MessagePack types, the best way to do this is to implement the CanBePacked interface in the class. A good example of such a class is the Map type class that comes with the library. This type is useful when you want to explicitly specify that a given PHP array should be packed as a MessagePack map without triggering an automatic type detection routine:
$packer = new Packer();
$packedMap = $packer->pack(new Map([1, 2, 3]));
$packedArray = $packer->pack([1, 2, 3]);
More type examples can be found in the src/Type directory.
Type transformers
As with type objects, type transformers are only responsible for serializing values. They should be used when you need to serialize a value that does not implement the CanBePacked interface. Examples of such values could be instances of built-in or third-party classes that you don't own, or non-objects such as resources.
A transformer class must implement the CanPack interface. To use a transformer, it must first be registered in the packer. Here is an example of how to serialize PHP streams into the MessagePack bin format type using one of the supplied transformers, StreamTransformer:
$packer = new Packer(null, [new StreamTransformer()]);
$packedBin = $packer->pack(fopen('/path/to/file', 'r+'));
More type transformer examples can be found in the src/TypeTransformer directory.
Extensions
In contrast to the cases described above, extensions are intended to handle extension types and are responsible for both serialization and deserialization of values (types).
An extension class must implement the Extension interface. To use an extension, it must first be registered in the packer and the unpacker.
The MessagePack specification divides extension types into two groups: predefined and application-specific. Currently, there is only one predefined type in the specification, Timestamp.
Timestamp
The Timestamp extension type is a predefined type. Support for this type in the library is done through the TimestampExtension class. This class is responsible for handling Timestamp objects, which represent the number of seconds and optional adjustment in nanoseconds:
$timestampExtension = new TimestampExtension();
$packer = new Packer();
$packer = $packer->extendWith($timestampExtension);
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker();
$unpacker = $unpacker->extendWith($timestampExtension);
$packedTimestamp = $packer->pack(Timestamp::now());
$timestamp = $unpacker->reset($packedTimestamp)->unpack();
$seconds = $timestamp->getSeconds();
$nanoseconds = $timestamp->getNanoseconds();
When using the MessagePack class, the Timestamp extension is already registered:
$packedTimestamp = MessagePack::pack(Timestamp::now());
$timestamp = MessagePack::unpack($packedTimestamp);
Application-specific extensions
In addition, the format can be extended with your own types. For example, to make the built-in PHP DateTime objects first-class citizens in your code, you can create a corresponding extension, as shown in the example. Please note, that custom extensions have to be registered with a unique extension ID (an integer from 0 to 127).
More extension examples can be found in the examples/MessagePack directory.
To learn more about how extension types can be useful, check out this article.
Exceptions
If an error occurs during packing/unpacking, a PackingFailedException or an UnpackingFailedException will be thrown, respectively. In addition, an InsufficientDataException can be thrown during unpacking.
An InvalidOptionException will be thrown in case an invalid option (or a combination of mutually exclusive options) is used.
Tests
Run tests as follows:
vendor/bin/phpunit
Also, if you already have Docker installed, you can run the tests in a docker container. First, create a container:
./dockerfile.sh | docker build -t msgpack -
The command above will create a container named msgpack with PHP 8.1 runtime. You may change the default runtime by defining the PHP_IMAGE environment variable:
PHP_IMAGE='php:8.0-cli' ./dockerfile.sh | docker build -t msgpack -
See a list of various images here.
Then run the unit tests:
docker run --rm -v $PWD:/msgpack -w /msgpack msgpack
Fuzzing
To ensure that the unpacking works correctly with malformed/semi-malformed data, you can use a testing technique called Fuzzing. The library ships with a help file (target) for PHP-Fuzzer and can be used as follows:
php-fuzzer fuzz tests/fuzz_buffer_unpacker.php
Performance
To check performance, run:
php -n -dzend_extension=opcache.so \
-dpcre.jit=1 -dopcache.enable=1 -dopcache.enable_cli=1 \
tests/bench.php
