  • Inspect RelationalNeighborSecond again to make sure there are no longer any missing value.

Hands-on interactive exercise

Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.

# Inspect the feature
___(studentnetworkdata$RelationalNeighborSecond)

# Find the indices of the missing values
toReplace <- ___(is.na(studentnetworkdata$___))

# Replace the missing values with 0
studentnetworkdata$RelationalNeighborSecond[___] <- ___

# Inspect the feature again
___(___$___)
