Calculate Expected Users Adopting Wallet Feature
Company: Coinbase
Role: Data Scientist
Category: Statistics & Math
Difficulty: easy
Interview Round: Technical Screen
##### Scenario
For N users, each independently adopts the wallet feature with probability p.
##### Question
Derive the expected number of users who adopt the wallet feature.
2) Compute the probability that at least one user adopts it.
3) State the core statistical assumption used in these calculations.
4) Given that at least one of two specific users adopted the feature, what is the probability both of them did?
##### Hints
Apply linearity of expectation, Bernoulli independence, complement rule, and conditional probability.
Quick Answer: This question evaluates probabilistic reasoning and basic statistical concepts—expectation, independent Bernoulli trials, and conditional probability—relevant to a Data Scientist role in the Statistics & Math domain.
