The most crucial and time-consuming part of any data science project is data cleansing and preparation. Thankfully, there are many powerful tools available that help us expedite this process.

The pandas’ library is one of the widely used data analysis libraries in python. Before using our models to perform data analysis on our data, it is critical to find any missing values that may affect our outputs.

Missing data occurs when a user being surveyed does not share their data. This tutorial will dive into a few methods that will help us identify and remove such missing data with the help of pandas.
