Applied Machine Learning: Industry Case Study with TensorFlow

# Chapter Goals:
- Merge the two DataFrames containing the feature data
- Learn how to identify features with missing data

# A. Merging the features

Both the `features_df` and `stores_df` DataFrames contain feature data, i.e. data related to the stores or weeks that correspond to the rows in `train_df`. Remember each feature is a column of the DataFrame, and that each row in a given column is an entry for that feature. Let's take a look at the specific features contained in each DataFrame.


Learn how to merge feature datasets find missing data in features.
