The data I am working on, when downloaded has rows of even the year 2023, but there's not a single repoted entry in it. Should I consider it to be the latest one, or should I stop at 2022.

Only Dr. Leo can answer that. I am no help here. But, If I were you I would go for 2022 as there is no value for 2023.

@NivaIbrahim , Yes, that's what I have been thinking to go with. Still, one question remains, that is, for the first question, which asks for the latest year specifically, should I go with 2022 or 2023. @leombastos please consider this case and suggest accordingly.

Kumar, you should include all years that have data reported.

Are you saying there is no data at all? If that's the case then something went wrong.

Show me a screenshot of your data frame showing the columns year, county, and value.

Just keep the rows where you have data for your category and use that throughout the project

Thank you for your response. I am doing that. But still, my last question here is: In the first question, it asks for the latest year from the data set. Which one should I consider? 2023 as there is mention of it, or 2022 because the reportings are up to this year only?
