This approach utilizes SQL LEFT JOIN to find all visits that do not have corresponding transactions and GROUP BY to count the occurrences.
Time Complexity: O(N + M), where N is the number of rows in the Visits table and M is the number of rows in the Transactions table.
Space Complexity: O(K), where K is the number of unique customer_id entries in the result set.

This Python solution utilizes the sqlite3 library to run an SQL query that joins Visits and Transactions tables, filters for null transactions, and groups the results. Python's sqlite3 is useful for embedding SQL queries in a Python script for easier data processing.
This approach uses a subquery with NOT EXISTS to find all visits by customers that do not appear in the Transactions table.
Time Complexity: O(N * M), where N is the number of rows in the Visits table and M is the number of rows in the Transactions table.
Space Complexity: O(K), where K is the number of unique customer_id entries in the result set.

This C# solution utilizes ADO.NET to connect to a SQLite database, execute a SQL query with a subquery for non-existent transactions, and process the results. The approach employs the relational database's query capability for accurate data retrieval.
