Exercise: Cleaning Auto MPG Dataset

This exercise will test a simple way to start investigating potential outliers.

We'll cover the following

Detect outliers

In this exercise, we will use the same data frame as read in from the Reading Data exercise.

We will then create an additional function outlier_detection that takes a data frame df and returns 2 numbers in a list:

  • The 90th percentile for every column
  • The 10th percentile for every column

Try to implement the function below. Feel free to view the solution, after giving it a few shots. Good Luck!
