You are given a list of tickers and their daily closing prices for a given period.

Implement the most_corr function that, when given each ticker's daily closing prices, returns the pair of tickers that are the most highly (linearly) correlated by daily percentage change.

A company stores login data and passwords in two different containers:

• DataFrame with columns: Id, Login, Verified.
• Two-dimensional NumPy array where each element is an array that contains: Id and Password.

Elements on the same row/index have the same Id.

Implement the function login_table that accepts these two containers and modifies id_name_verified DataFrame in-place, so that:

• The Verified column should be removed.
• The password from NumPy array should be added as the last column with the name "Password" to DataFrame.

For example, the following code snippet:

id_name_verified = pd.DataFrame([[1, "JohnDoe", True], [2, "AnnFranklin", False]], columns=["Id", "Login", "Verified"])
id_password = np.array([[1, 987340123], [2, 187031122]], np.int32)
login_table(id_name_verified, id_password)
print(id_name_verified)

Should print:

   Id        Login   Password
0   1      JohnDoe  987340123
1   2  AnnFranklin  187031122

As a part of an application for iris enthusiasts, implement the train_and_predict function which should be able to classify three types of irises based on four features.

The train_and_predict function accepts three parameters:

• train_input_features - a two-dimensional NumPy array where each element is an array that contains: sepal length, sepal width, petal length, and petal width.
• train_outputs - a one-dimensional NumPy array where each element is a number representing the species of iris which is described in the same row of train_input_features. 0 represents Iris setosa, 1 represents Iris versicolor, and 2 represents Iris virginica.
• prediction_features - two-dimensional NumPy array where each element is an array that contains: sepal length, sepal width, petal length, and petal width.

The function should train a classifier using train_input_features as input data and train_outputs as the expected result. After that, the function should use the trained classifier to predict labels for prediction_features and return them as an iterable (like list or numpy.ndarray). The nth position in the result should be the classification of the nth row of the prediction_features parameter.

Implement the desired_marketing_expenditure function, which returns the required amount of money that needs to be invested in a new marketing campaign to sell the desired number of units.

Use the data from previous marketing campaigns to evaluate how the number of units sold grows linearly as the amount of money invested increases.

For example, for the desired number of 60,000 units sold and previous campaign data from the table below, the function should return the float 250,000.
