Can you discuss how R handles missing values in statistical calculations?
- R provides functions to handle missing values, such as na.rm = TRUE in calculations
- R automatically excludes missing values in statistical calculations
- R treats missing values as 0 in calculations
- R displays an error when encountering missing values
R handles missing values in statistical calculations by providing functions that allow for exclusion of missing values from calculations. For example, many statistical functions in R have an na.rm parameter that, when set to TRUE, ignores missing values and performs calculations on the available data. This allows for accurate statistical analyses even when data contain missing values.
