This code performs the following steps:

  1. Display Initial Message: Prints the message Initiating data cleaning process by removing incomplete records... to indicate that the data cleaning process is starting.

  2. Remove Rows with Null Values:

    • Creates a new DataFrame df_cleaned_data_no_nulls by dropping all rows in the original DataFrame df that contain any NaN or null values. This is achieved using df.dropna().
  3. Calculate Record Counts:

    • Stores the number of rows in the original DataFrame df as initial_record_count.
    • Stores the number of rows in the cleaned DataFrame df_cleaned_data_no_nulls as cleaned_record_count.
    • Calculates the number of rows that were removed during the cleaning process by subtracting cleaned_record_count from initial_record_count, storing the result in records_removed.
  4. Print Data Cleaning Summary:

    • Displays the original shape of the DataFrame (df.shape).
    • Displays the shape of the cleaned DataFrame after removing rows with null values (df_cleaned_data_no_nulls.shape).
  5. Display Remaining Null Counts:

    • Prints a summary of the number of null values remaining in each column of the cleaned DataFrame. This is done using df_cleaned_data_no_nulls.isnull().sum().

In summary, this code initiates a data cleaning process by removing rows with null values and provides a summary of the dataset's shape before and after the cleaning, along with remaining null counts in the cleaned dataset.
