- Extracting key pieces of information from a data column.
- Assigning types to data columns.
- Understanding and finding outliers in your data.
- Replacing missing pieces of data.
- Encoding data.
- Joining data.
Submit your assignment by running python3 -m cse40.autograder submit from your local repository directory.
This script will check for your cruzid, password, and assignment id in config.json
