Cleaning & Preprocessing

• Missing Values:
  Some entries contained (NA) and (S) values, which were converted to null values.
  • (S): Estimate does not meet publication standards due to high sampling variability (coefficient of variation greater than 30%) or poor response quality (low total quantity response rate).
• Formatting:
  The downloaded data included headings, subheadings, and notes embedded within the tables. These extraneous elements were removed to ensure a clean and consistent dataset.
• Data Compilation:
  The original dataset was spread across multiple sheets, with each sheet containing data for a specific year. These sheets were consolidated into a single, unified table.
• Feature Engineering:
  A new column was created to provide both seasonally adjusted and non-seasonally adjusted sales values, enabling more nuanced analysis. Estimates are adjusted for seasonal variations, as well as holiday and trading-day differences, but not for price changes.
