Fill NAs -------- Use this function to fill in NA values in a sequential manner up to a specified limit. When using this function, you will specify whether the method to fill the NAs should go forward (default) or backward , whether the NAs should be filled along rows (default) or columns, and the maximum number of consecutive NAs to fill (defaults to 1). .. example-code:: .. code-block:: r library(h2o) h2o.init() # Create a random data frame with 6 rows and 2 columns. # Specify that no more than 70% of the values are NAs. fr.with.nas = h2o.createFrame(categorical_fraction=0.0, missing_fraction=0.7, rows=6, cols=2, seed=123) fr.with.nas C1 C2 1 NaN NaN 2 -77.10471 -93.64087 3 -13.65926 57.44389 4 NaN NaN 5 39.10130 NaN 6 NaN 55.43136 [6 rows x 2 columns] # Forward fill a row.
