Handling Missing Data

What is Handling Missing Data?
Missing data occurs when values are absent in a dataset, which can distort analysis if not handled carefully. Common strategies include removing rows with missing values, imputing with the mean, median, or a predicted value, and flagging missingness as its own category. The right approach depends on how much data is missing and why.
