Note: When working with missing data, you need to consider why that data is missing. In survey data, missing values may mean that the surveyor did not ask the question, that the respondent did not answer the question, or that the data are truly missing. (Some datasets have these three cases coded differently; others lump them together. Check your metadata/codebook to make sure you know what you are working with!) For numeric data, keep in mind that missing data are not the same as a value of zero. (This may seem obvious, but I have had many students nonchalantly say "oh, so we can just replace those with zeros..." Nope.) Consider this in the context of gas mileage. MPG = 0 is very different from MPG = "I'm not sure."
