unit_root

Perform Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) unit root test.

The ADF test is a popular method for testing the presence of a unit root in a time series. A unit root indicates that the series may be non-stationary, meaning its statistical properties such as mean, variance, and autocorrelation can change over time. The presence of a unit root suggests that the time series might be influenced by a random walk process, making it unpredictable and challenging for modeling and forecasting. The 'regression' parameter allows you to specify the model used in the test: 'c' for a constant term, 'ct' for a constant and trend term, and 'ctt' for a constant, linear, and quadratic trend. This flexibility helps tailor the test to the specific characteristics of your data, providing a more accurate assessment of its stationarity.
