I don't know why this gave so many failed test results :(

[TonyBagnall]

hi, you will need to change the calls to _create_nested_dataframe too
test_X3 = _create_nested_dataframe(5, 1, 10)
test_X4 = _create_nested_dataframe(5, 3, 10)

[TonyBagnall]

if you look here
https://github.com/scikit-time/scikit-time/actions/runs/4281029339/jobs/7453646558
it gives indication as to why it failed

Hey @TonyBagnall, The functions which are duplicate have different names and i removed the function which text_X3 and test_X4 uses : https://imgur.com/HHwMhr6.png

I have to make

def _create_example_dataframe(cases=5, dimensions=1, length=10):
    """Create a simple data frame set of time series (X) for testing."""
    test_X = pd.DataFrame(dtype=np.float32)
    for i in range(0, dimensions):
        instance_list = []
        for _ in range(0, cases):
            instance_list.append(pd.Series(np.random.randn(length)))
        test_X["dimension_" + str(i)] = instance_list
    return test_X

To

def _create_nested_dataframe(cases=5, dimensions=1, length=10):
    """Create a simple data frame set of time series (X) for testing."""
    test_X = pd.DataFrame(dtype=np.float32)
    for i in range(0, dimensions):
        instance_list = []
        for _ in range(0, cases):
            instance_list.append(pd.Series(np.random.randn(length)))
        test_X["dimension_" + str(i)] = instance_list
    return test_X

I have made the changes

[TonyBagnall]

you need to keep _create_example_dataframe, delete _create_nested_dataframe and then change the calls to _create_nested_dataframe so that _create_example_dataframe is called instead.

[scorcism]

so, basically I have to change calls for _create_nested_dataframe to _create_example_dataframe
and use _create_example_dataframe
Sorry for all this confusions :)
