I have a function which takes data loaded from a file. Normally it’s all Matrix{Float64} but sometimes there are some missing values, Matrix{Union{Missing, Float64}. How would I write a function to take a Number matrix with or without missing values? Here is my failing attempt. function missingOrN…

I think: function missingOrNot(data::Union{Matrix{Float64}, Matrix{Union{Float64, Missing}}}) or function missingOrNot(data::Matrix{T}) where T Union{Float64, Union{Float64, Missing}}

Multiple dispatch with and without missing to same function?

I think:

function missingOrNot(data::Union{Matrix{Float64}, Matrix{Union{Float64, Missing}}})

function missingOrNot(data::Matrix{T}) where T Union{Float64, Union{Float64, Missing}}
