How halla handles missing data

Downstream analysis and statistics HAllA

Hi,

I would like to ask how halla deals with missing data. I saw in previous versions the argument “MISSING_CHAR” but it’s no longer in the help message from the current version.

Thanks

HAllA uses pandas.read_table to read in the data, so it detects missing values using that. You can scroll down to na_values to see the strings that get detected as NAs. HAllA also adds empty cells to that list.

When evaluating associations, NAs are dropped.
