Get Rolling Sharpe Ratio.

This function calculates the Sharpe Ratio, a metric used to assess the return of an investment compared to its risk. By factoring in the risk-free rate, it helps you understand how much extra return you're getting for the extra volatility that you endure by holding a riskier asset. The Sharpe Ratio is essential for investors looking to compare the efficiency of different investments, providing a clear picture of potential rewards in relation to their risks over a specified period. Ideal for gauging the effectiveness of investment strategies, it offers insights into optimizing your portfolio for maximum return on risk.
