Replace missing values with the median value
Given is a basetable
that has a predictive variable age
of the donors that has missing values in it. It is a good idea to replace these missing values by the median age of the donors.
This exercise is part of the course
Intermediate Predictive Analytics in Python
Exercise instructions
- Calculate the median age of all donors and assign this value to
median_age
. - Replace missing values in
age
bymedian_age
. - Calculate the median age of all donors after the replacement is done.

# Calculate the median of age
median_age = ____["____"].____()
print(median_age)
# Replace missing values by the median
basetable["age"] = ____["____"].____(____)
# Calculate the median of age after replacement
median_age = ____["____"].____()
print(median_age)
