data cleaning Automatic data types checking in predictive models Given certain data, and we need to create models (xgboost, random forest, regression, etc). Each one of them has its constraints regarding data types. Errors are not clear, here's a new function to speed up model creation.
data preparation Fast data exploration for predictive modeling Before predictive model creation, we need to check/change numerical, categorical, NAs, one unique value and high cardinality variables. This new function will assist us in this task.
