PREreview of Leveraging Quadratic Polynomials in Python for Advanced Data Analysis

The manuscript is well-organized, with detailed and precise methods and implementation cases. The provided Python Notebook is especially handy. The proposed Python-formatted version of the code snippet for quadratic polynomials appears useful for researchers. Additionally, the code is available through MyBinder.org. However, I suggest that potential overfitting should be discussed to improve the manuscript's clarity and effectiveness. While a high R-squared value often suggests a good fit of the model to the data, it can also be misleading. A very high R-squared value can be a sign of overfitting, particularly in cases where the number of predictors (independent variables) is close to the number of observations.
