Data Cleaning: Specific Columns

[tandrasfay]

The assignment states that we need to analyze two columns of the data: the learning style plus one additional column. Do we need to clean up the entire data or just the columns we decide to use?

You should at least clean the data that you use. If you're ambitious and have time to clean up more data, then it will certainly be good practice for later on to learn how to clean up data. There is a LOT of dirty data in the world, so practicing will help you hone your skills.

We do NOT need to clean every bit of data, only the columns that you choose... I would recommend giving yourself a chance to practice the data cleanup by choosing a column that stretches your skills so you have a chance to learn.

The Learning Styles column is the hardest one, though, so the rest of the columns should be easy by comparison!

I am leaving this question open for a while in case others have a similar question.
