  • Print and inspect the values in the title column of the urban_art DataFrame.
  • Print and inspect the values in the desc column of the urban_art DataFrame.
  • Use the fillna() method to replace the NaN values in the desc column with empty strings, and use .str.replace to replace the apostrophes (') with back-ticks (`).
  • Print the descriptions again to verify your work.
