What changes are you trying to make? (e.g. Adding or removing code, refactoring existing code, adding reports)

submitting assignment 2

What did you learn from the changes you have made?

how to combine pieces of everything we have learned in sql to create more complex queries

Was there another approach you were thinking about making? If so, what approach(es) were you thinking of?

no

Were there any challenges? If so, what issue(s) did you face? How did you overcome it?

the last few questions were very challenging and also very open-ended in how they could be approached.
in particular i was confused about the question where an older CURRENT_TIMESTAMP was deleted - it seemed impossible to replicate as each time the timestamps would change.

How were these changes tested?

manual processing of some examples from raw data

Your query correctly filters by product ID and uses a timestamp condition. Think about how to select the oldest matching row dynamically without hard coding. You can find the oldest record using MIN(snapshot_timestamp)) and delete only that row
