Generates a data frame report of any categorical variables with non-Boolean (or compatible with boolean) values in the 'missing' column of the 'Categories' element. This report can be used to help assess data structure, presence of fields, coherence across elements, and taxonomy or data dictionary formats.

check_data_dict_missing_categories(data_dict)

Arguments

data_dict

A list of data frame(s) representing metadata to be evaluated.

Value

A data frame providing categorical values which 'missing' column is not a boolean.

Details

A data dictionary contains the list of variables in a dataset and metadata about the variables and can be associated with a dataset. A data dictionary object is a list of data frame(s) named 'Variables' (required) and 'Categories' (if any). To be usable in any function, the data frame 'Variables' must contain at least the name column, with all unique and non-missing entries, and the data frame 'Categories' must contain at least the variable and name columns, with unique combination of variable and name.
