[ArashAminpour]

Name feature: Is_mall

• Need to check if the stores in stores_train have missing value in column MallName since they are not in a Mall or that they have missing value but is actually a part of a Mall.

1. • Check the stores_train dataset for GK id with NaN in mall-coloum
   • Check for corresponding GK id in stores_extra
   • If mallName exist in stores_extra at the corresponding Long Lat -> use the fillna() function to fill the missing value in stores_train
2. • Iterate through stores_train column MallName
   • If value = NaN => Is_mall = False
   • Else -> Is_mall = True
