How to replace Missing Values w/ '0' using JSL

How do I replace Missing Values w/ '0' using JSL?

I can do this manually using 'Find and Replace All', but I need to incorporate it in a code that runs automatically everyday.

Re: How to replace Missing Values w/ '0' using JSL

This works when I am running it from a scripting window using play button, but not within a debugger or launching it by autorun of the .jsl. 

 

dtLongestWaitStates << set name( "LongestWaitStates" );
dtLongestWaitStates = Current Data Table();
nc = dtLongestWaitStates << get column names( numeric );
For( i = 1, i <= N Items( nc ), i++,
	nc[i][dtLongestWaitStates << get rows where( Is Missing( nc[i][] ) )] = 0
);

Another way...

 

 

clsMat = dt << Get As Matrix( {"colA", "colB"} );

clsMat[Loc( Is Missing( clsMat ) )] = 0;

:colA << Set Values( clsRej[0, 1] );
:colB << Set Values( clsRej[0, 2] );

 

etc.

 

logical indexing is often faster than loops

Re: How to replace Missing Values w/ '0' using JSL

cool! ... in the last 2 lines, clsRej should be replaced to clsMat, right?

meanwhile, do we have any similar solutions for character column?

Re: How to replace Missing Values w/ '0' using JSL

Since no one else answered, the solution is the same, just grab character columns instead and set the rows equal to the character you find fitting--"N/A" in the below case.

 

Just be careful, setting it =0 will change the column to numeric and will remove all the character data, however ="0" should be fine.

 

 

dt = Current Data Table();
nc = dt << get column names( Character );

For( i = 1, i <= N Items( nc ), i++,
  nc[i][dt << get rows where( Is Missing( nc[i][] ) )] = "N/A"
);
