Deleting missing values from a dataset
$begingroup$
I wanted to create a dataset of all UFO sightings in April of 2018. The
AssociationThread
doesn't want to work, because some of the entries are missing value, what is the best way to fix it?
dataA1 = Import[
"http://www.nuforc.org/webreports/ndxe201804.html", {"HTML",
"Data"}];
dataA2 = Flatten[Rest@dataA1, 1];
dataA3 =
Map[AssociationThread[First[dataA1], #] &, dataA2]
Dataset[dataA3]
import dataset associations web-access

To be clear, this isn't about data that isMissing
, but ratherImport[XXXX,{"HTML", "Data"}]
giving "tables" that have rows with inconsistent lengths.

You can solve this by importing "FullData"
rather than "Data"
.
dataA1 = Import[
"http://www.nuforc.org/webreports/ndxe201804.html", {"HTML",
"FullData"}]
dataA2 = Flatten[Most@Rest@dataA1[[8]], 1]
dataA3 = Map[AssociationThread[dataA1[[8, 1, 1]], #] &, dataA2];
Dataset[dataA3]
What's awkward about this is that there can be many empty tables that you must sift through (as you can see, I have to get the 8th element). However, it works quite well in this case.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
Thank you, but I'm not completely sure how "Data" and "FullData" differ. Why do they exist separately?
